[QUOTE="Box Ox, post: 1186687, member: 48469"] It does get better if you can hang in there long enough for your body to adjust to the sustained/frantic pace and mind to be able to relax when things are coming hard and heavy down the belt. I've learned to laugh when things get completely ridiculous. The shelf locations will eventually come naturally and you won't even have to think about where to put packages. Getting grief from your coworkers within your first 30 days is completely normal as they've been there and through "initiation." They know it's a big adjustment. They'll come to respect you if you show up every day and do your best. Most people can't. I imagine it's like being thrown into the deep end of a pool when you can't swim very well. What happens after that depends on how badly you want to swim out of it. My advice would be to learn all you can and do the best you can, no questions asked in your first 30. After that you'll have the union behind you and can have some fun jawing with supervisors whenever things become clearly unsafe or overwhelming even after you're fully adjusted. [/QUOTE]
