I hope everyone is doing okay. The weekend wasn’t good to me. My tonsils began to hurt and ended with an infection. I was on ibuprofen and vaporub for a whole week 8/6-8/12. Not a good week for me physically, but in addition to healing I had to deal with the tension.
We were once again presenting financials for the third time as part of our training. My turn was in the afternoon because I would have to present on the top investigator. Once again they butted heads and I only sat back, silent and remained calm. There was no way of mitigating the tension that exists. The supervisor is trying to train and explain and the co-worker only takes direction, isn’t making connections. If she has done the work before why is she struggling so much? There is no initiative and doesn’t think through the process of analyzing. I even took another 45 minutes before the end of the day today to explain to her what she didn’t understand, previously discussed the past two days and she made it seem to the supervisor she understood. Helping her has put me behind and had to catch up forcing me to work extra hours.
The co-worker acknowledged that I made a lot of progress in analyzing the projects assigned to me. It’s hasn’t been an easy thing. The key things here is to take initiative and create a structure. I guess my cheat sheet hasn’t worked for her or she hasn’t looked at it? It’s all on her. I won’t be training I have work to do. All the Best!
