I'm in the first few months of a new job. I was excited for a new company, however I'm not so sure they are ready for a new team member.
So far every morning I've asked what I can work on and they say you can work on xyz and I'll get you started on that in a little bit. Then they never show me how to do it.
It's not like I need much direction. I've been in this feild for ten years. I need 5 minutes to be shown were the files I need to access and where they need to be saved or sent to.
This morning my boss showed another team member how to do something he said I can work on the past week.
I've asked my team every afternoon that I need some work. They get flustered and start shuffling papers on their desks. They say I'll get back to you.
Each day is an excuse that they are too busy to give me work.
One project I worked on I was shown how to do it by my trainer. Later my trainer posted a procedure for the same project and shared the procedure with several departments with different parameters that they specifically told me not to use.
Some projects they have asked me to do are repeats of items they have already completed. So why ask me to work on it? Or the team has just done the project.
I just don't understand. I've trained so many people in my 10 years. This is not how it usually goes. Any advice appreciated.
