Recently, I made a career switch from being a teacher to a copywriter. The experience for the first few weeks was ok, but I realised that my manager doesn't give me instructions on what to do. She'd say, do X, and when I asked her to clarify what X was, or if there was a guideline, she'd say, “Do it first, and then I'll come in and troubleshoot.” I even sent her a link to ask, “Does this research help me do X?” And I got the same answer.
, I have been failing my probation period, which is supposed to last 3 months. I fear looking at my phone and every time I get feedback from her, I don't even dare voice out my concerns anymore. I want to look for a new job and I already have a new interview lined up. I'm not really sure what I'm looking for. Advice? Something comforting? IDK. This switch has made me regret leaving teaching because at least for teaching, everything was cut and dry. This is horrid.
