[QUOTE="nagboy92, post: 1157035, member: 48222"] I had 2 supervisors during my tenure there. For the first 3-4 weeks I had a middle aged woman helping me and he was very helpful and supportive and tried to help me get faster at the job. The last week of 2 I had someone my own age (21 or so) who was tougher and basically seemed to be repeating verbatim out of some workbook and telling me I needed to work with "a sense of urgency" which I found ironic because I was moving faster and more strenuously then almost everyone else in my section. I obeyed whatever either supervisor said and made sure to never make waves with anybody in the hub and always kept a good attitude and work effort which I was told a lot of times in a "you work hard and are on time every day but you just don't cut the mustard" kind of way. I figured I was improving in the last few days and thought I would work here for a few years until I was let go. In a way I guess it's a blessing in disguise as I was told by other preloaders that it was better to get out sooner or later. To be honest I couldn't see myself working here 20-25 years like some people, it was kind of a fix between whatever came next whether it was going back to school or finding a better job. [/QUOTE]
