[QUOTE="Big Package, post: 2992140, member: 67494"] You sound like you're good. Just keep it up for 50 more days or whatever, slowly improve but consistently. The better worker you are, the better numbers your supervisors get to keep numbers, and the more time they'll spend on the bad workers getting their numbers up because you're good on your own. Really it's a place where, if you're doing fine, you're largely left alone. Inquiring about your future with the company may help, but word it right.. not "when am I finally getting a raise or promotion", but rather "I'd like to expand my skill sets, what is available for me?" or some such. Unfortunately your gusto and drive and dedication won't mean anything to them until they realize wow we really need this guy, he keeps this area locked down, he's always getting better and is already great. I wouldn't ask an immediate supervisor about your options and what you can do to help them and the company and they'll eat it right up. Just like with women, don't be too "available". But on the other hand, if you have any days off, you can ask your manager or call during later shifts and see if they need help. It's really hard to offer straight advice without knowing your building or structure. If you're a great worker in a small center and people around you suck, they'll take notice. [/QUOTE]
