I feel like an idiot
Yesterday I decided to take VET because I thought it would be nice to get some more hours and hands on experience, but I very quickly realized it was not a great idea. The thing is, I've only been doing this job for 4 days, so I am super new and generally don't have a clue how to do my job. Me and the group of new associates I'd been trained with have never truly been turned loose on our own before. I clocked in, asked around until I found my AM, got to my area, then suddenly realized I forgot my gloves in my car so I had to go all the way back to the PPE vending machine at the front of the building 🤦♂️
So, I get the gloves and start heading back to my area.
I make it back and am told I'll be wrapping pallets and helping move them with the pallet jack. I do that for a while, but feel terrible the whole time because I don't know what I'm doing and I had to ask what I'm meant to do at times when work slowed down. I really didn't want to make anyone's job harder than it had to be, but I felt like I was just kind of in the way. At one point I ask what time it is, this is the worst part by far. The extra shift I picked up here was a short one, 2:15-5:30. They say, "3:46" somehow I only really heard the "46" part of this and panicked because I thought I was late to clock out, so what do I do? Fucking clock out! 🤦♂️😭😂
2:10-3:55...
This was an absolute disaster and I would have been better off just staying at home.
