Why are so many people so negative towards the new employee? If they make a mistake, instead of saying something positive like "Don't worry, you'll get the hang of it.", they say something like "What are you? Retarded?". If they're not doing something fast enough, instead of saying "We try to get things done in a quick pace", they say "You're a slow worker.". Why is this? Can't they understand that "new" means exactly that: NEW. The new person has to "get their hands dirty" before they can fluently move from one thing to the next. They don't know where everything is. They haven't been trained on everything yet. I wish these people would realize that having a bad attitude towards the new person is actually WORSE in the long run. I also believe that a lot of people nowadays are not qualified to train other people. They always show them the most basic way of doing something, not the optimum way that the company looks for. It seems a lot of details are skipped in the training process. Why?
