Antiwork

Just started a new job and didn’t get any training.

I've just started a new job last evening at a retail store and it started out fine. I have 5 years of prior experience in jobs in different fields. I worked at a movie theater for one year and 2 different supermarkets one for 3 years and one for one year. I have learned that every store has a different approach of managing their staff. I had to work a 6-9 evening shift and i had to wait 1,5 hour to actually start working without any explanation of what i actually had to do. Part of the problem is that the manager just kept talking without end with other staff. She assigned a worker to train me but he just walked away and didn't say a word. I tried asking questions but i just got some half assed answers. The whole evening i just felt like some shadow standing there.…

The whole evening i just felt like some shadow standing there. I tried doing things but i had no idea if what i was doing was right. I have no idea how to continue with this job the next few weeks.
