| Just got a job, don't like it...AT ALL, what to do?
Posting on behalf of a friend,
Like the title states, recently got a job, training was provided 2.5 weeks paid. Went into work for the past week and it's been terrible, my bosses hate me, I constantly keep getting in trouble and I feel like leaving, but need the job in order to pay bills.
Have you ever been in this situation and if so how did/would you deal with it?

Working in a processing plant, manufacturing plastics
the bosses are always around, he drinks, but doesn't smoke, but if he did the bosses would know about it.
The job market really is down and it's hard to find a job, thus his dilemma.

I would feel a little guilty about the 2.5 paid training weeks, but you have to look out for yourself not the company you work for.
Personally I would just start looking for a job and when you find another one just tell them you have a better offer.

Suffer through it, while looking for another job, at the same time.

Have you ever been in this situation and if so how did/would you deal with it? | 1) Why doesn't he like you?
2) What are you doing to get into trouble?
3) How old are you?
4) Deleted by El Bastardo
5) that is all

if it doesn't pay a lot move on when you find a better job. dont feel bad about training. lots of ppl leave after training, i've seen/heard it happen before.
they wont feel bad firing you or laying you off. you shouldnt feel bad leaving to improve your way of life. both sides have to do what they have to do to survive

5) that is all | Thanks for all the advice people, it's helped out a great deal. I'm just dealing for now and looking for another job, hopefully I get another one soon, so I could just leave it all behind me. I have another friend that is in the same position, but it's with the casino (not going to say which one), went through training, is doing well for the casino (players are losing all their money), but they are getting threatened physical harm from other players and they've had just about enough of it.
to answer your questions
1) I have no idea why, he just seems like he's been in my position before and got into alot of trouble and now since he is one of the new supervisors, he feels like he needs to show his power to feel Superior
2) I'm not really doing anything, I mean I won't be as proficient as the others that work, but he's just always on my back about everything. You know "oh thats wrong, thats wrong, thats wrong, why are you such an idiot"
3)I'm 23
