Allo Allo Allo,
I've been at B for about 3 months now. So, far I'm enjoying it here. The work isn't too bad, but shows I'm sadly lacking in knowledge of the background information. I have to start studying and learning stuff. It's hard trying to teach yourself lessons on bacteria, because you've no clear guideline on what to learn. I'm still in the training stage, but I'm being given more duties to do.
I'm still uncertain and uneasy about my place here. I'm not sure if I really belong here. I'll give it time and see what happens.
I'm still have trouble sleeping. I stay up late at night thinking about B. How should I fit in? What should I do to improve? What were the mistakes I made? Why did I make them? Will I get in trouble? These thoughts just go around and around my mind. I just replay the day over and over. I have to stop. The worry and stress is getting to me. I think I'll learn over time.
I've a paranoid streak. definitely about people. I can't help think my coworkers don't like me much. This may be just all in my heard. I give off the feeling that I'm a loner. I try not to. I've started talking more and share my private life more. It may not be enough. I guess this is another wait and see thing.
B did something shocking last week. They fired a girl. She was only here for about a month. I don't think she did anything to warrant being fired. It was really harsh of them to do so. I've heard that she would interrupt people talking, not do her work and try to reschedule things. I think she was just overeager to prove her self and to get some stuff done. She was a really nice girl and I liked her a lot.
I feel so bad for her. This was her first job and to be fired from it in a month. This experience could really kill her self confidence. It's hard to for seasonal workers to be fired. It'll really hurt a complete newbie. She's young, only 22. They could have taught her the proper way to do things and guide her, but they just fired her. She was a temp, so they probably felt that was unneceessary. What's also strange was her boss was on vacation when she was fired. So the other managers were the one that fired her. Icky business now.
I wish her well and luck. I hope she gets better soon and finds a better future than B could have gave her.
