I got my first (bitchy) job!
So the day has come… I’m not that excited because the whole day sucked like hell. If you’re a guy who’s hoping to get a decent job on your first try, forget it.
For a start off, I arrived at 9h30 at the office so I would start being taught the all-fancy Microsoft’s SharePoint… yet the boss only came at midday! I wasted 2,5 hours for nothing. When the guy actually came he said I should start with SharePoint right away. The thing is he didn’t actually say I was to do it all by myself. After some dirty stuff we did lifting closets, me and a newcomer as well were given a book (not two – one per brain – , just one) and told: “Start doin’ it, you have this virtual machine to start playing around…” What the hell?! Where’s our training? This slide-like 250 page book with something we didn’t put our brains into whensoever in our entire life and we just «start doin’ it»??
The worst thing was the machine I was given: it didn’t work! I had to format it myself and spend 2 hours trying to make it work with the virtual machine up and running as well..! After all that was clear, I tried to actually run the VM; result: it didn’t work again. One more hour to fix it and it finally goes up. What’s my final suprise? The VM is slow as a turtoise!
I can’t work like this! Somebody make time go bullet fast because I had enough of this and it’s been only my first day! I start to get a little scared of what might happen the next weeks.
I’m looking for a company that wants PHP or Rails with special concern on page design. Just talk to me and I’ll be right over. No fancy crap like Microsoft please!
