If the higher ups take your side, they can't fire you because they'd get fired themselves.
My mother did the same thing working a shitty job and she nearly got the manager fired because the higher-ups took my mum's side
Star has a right to get trained and she hasn't gotten trained. She needs to call in the higher ups because what stops them not-training the next employee?

Hmm... okay, I think I know how this is gonna go.
You make an elongated post about how you're really depressed over a relatively small, but still very affecting, social matter.
I point out that I go through similar social matters on a daily basis, and use an example from this forum, but also neglecting to point out that the reason people act that way to me is because I'm horribly bad at basic socialising and rustled them off. I will point out that I learned how to properly comprehend such situations and offer vague advice, such as "learn to understand the other person's motives and communication flaws", while being unintentionally horribly mean and arrogant about it because I'm horrible at understanding basic emotions. Said advice won't be of any help to you at all, because while it works for me, I can't admit to myself that I just think notably more logically than regular people.
Other people will then give out to me for being so horribly mean about it, while thinking themselves justified in being intentionally horribly mean back to me, resulting in the people in your own situation looking like nice people in comparison. I will then leave the discussion, knowing well that anything else I say will just make matters worse.
And because everyone else thinks of my post as just being arrogant and stupid, and I think the same of everyone else's responses, nobody will learn a lesson from any of this. Nontheless, the cycle will repeat itself, because I'll still think my overly-logical way of dealing with such problems is right and feel the need to teach other people, while other people will keep thinking that by giving out enough I'll stop being so mean.
Well hey, y'can't say I'm not self-aware!

Sorry it took me so long to get back, Star. But you shouldn't worry about this, you're a wonderful person and your life isn't going to end with you working at Dairy Queen. You're going to go on to bigger and better things; you don't need to worry about this one little rock in your way. Besides, it might just be a hazing! Just keep being polite and work hard.
They might be rude now, but just give it a little time. They might turn out to be great friends! But if that isn't the case, well, like I said: You're going to go on.
And in regards to what you said this forum... well, let's face it, we aren't exactly the super-popular and most socially adept kids in real life, are we? But that's what makes us so great, we all know that we go through similar experiences (albeit some more extreme than others) and forge strong, unbreakable friendships at the same time. And slowly, we all start to grow bit by bit.

My first job ever was working in a restaurant, cleaning it every tuesday. Two or three times I got assigned to work at saturday evening when the restaurant had opened. I got yelled at constantly, not cleaning the dishes fast enough, beeing in the way of the cooks etc etc. I worked there for around 7 months, and the day I wanted to quit anyways I got fired, because I wasn't fast enough doing 5 different things alltogether. I think it's needless to say my boss was a real witch. My co-workers were friendly, but suddenly at one point they started to turn to assholes against me, and my boss got even more nastier. Well, I know how to endure bad situations and people beeing mean to you, but if I had to stay there any longer, I probably would've had snapped.
My situation wasn't anyway near yours Star, but I can imagine it. I think you should do what Decker said, there is no way someone has to endure all that. Talk to your co-workers or your trainer first, tell them they better should finally teach you how it works instead of leaving you on your own, and if they still don't, go to a higher office. If your co-workers are already assholes to you, there is not much to worry that they hate you more later on. If the situation still don't get better, or they try make you feel even more shitty because of doing dirty tricks to you, go all berserk about them and then quit.
Seriously, if you feel that the situation is already growing atop your head after 5 days, this probably isn't the real workplace for you. No cheddar in the world is worth this.

Kick some other guy in the crotch in front of them. It's hard for someone to feel they're uncomfortable when they're looking at somebody else writhing around in pain on the floor!RikuKyuutu wrote:RikuKyuutu wrote:Torizo, I made one of my friends more uncomfortable than usual.

Plus, it's fun!
