First day with my new officemate and, uh. Maybe it's just that my previous officemate was basically perfectly suited for me but the whole day felt off.

Also. It's a bit of a joke at work that they send the problem people to my side. Only a bit, because there's truth to it. We only deal with one client on my side and don't handle live specimens. It's also a different building than the former supervisor, who is a petty, petulant and opinionated old woman who several people have had issues working with. All this to say, it's a good placement for people who are struggling to get into a groove. Still, my office hasn't been a proverbial time-out corner for over a year. It kinda feels like it's become that again, though, based on the email I was copied in to her from the current supervisor. She's only allowed to do the cases that are looked at by the doctor in the office directly next to ours, so that any mistakes that are caught can be more quickly pointed out and corrected. It was emphasized-- no, E M P H A S I Z E D that she should take her time and doublecheck everything. There's also the fact that she was doing cases for our client for a good minute before rather abruptly being taken off of them, even though she was usually stuck on busywork when I'd run my errands between buildings. I didn't bother myself with wondering too hard about that at the time, even though I found it puzzling, but now...

Idk. I got along very well with my previous officemate and she took quickly to the work. Our office had a great, upbeat and productive energy that was even more refreshing considering I'd been begging for a new officemate for months by the time she was sent over to me. And she only left due to issues at home that couldn't be overcome. Ngl, the fact that she was basically forced to leave by circumstances outside her control has given me an overall negative outlook on having anyone else come in and I can't promise that I'm not being unfair.

Just. Ugh. I'm not looking forward to having to carve outa new dynamic with a new person when I was so happy with what I had :/
