New job is kicking my a**

I'm on day 9 and I'm getting vibes that feel like they don't think I'm learning fast enough.

The lady that's helping to show me the ropes is nice to me but I can tell she doesn't like repeating herself. Every time I ask a question, she starts her answer with, "like I said earlier..."

I still don't understand most of what's going on though. I might be fucked if I can't start learning faster.

What do, bros?
If you can't fully understand the instructions at once, get yourself a voice/video recorder and record. Then review and learn.

P.s. I do that sometimes when a multi-step processes are involved as it is hard to remember everything in one go.
 
Go to the bathroom to masterbate furiously to release some of that pressure. During work.
 
What do, bros?
Just start coming across overly confident to the point she questions her own abilities to do the job.

Anytime she shows you how to do something just respond in the most aggressive over confident response you can think:

“That’s how you do it? No wonder they want to replace us with AI.”

“I remember they used to do it like that in the 90s”

“Do they have anyone younger who can train me?”

“I can do it the way you showed me or the right way what do you think is best?”

You're a month in now, how's the job going?

Much better. Still a lot of shit I don't know or can't do, but there are things that I can do already, so I don't feel like a complete failure anymore.

If this were BJJ I'd say I'm almost ready for my yellow belt.

Actually, scratch that. Maybe Tae Kwon Do instead.
