On Monday I started my new job at the bank, well I knew I would be training for the next three weeks but I assumed it would be working with other tellers and them training me on how to process the money and/or dealing with different forms of transactions and also filling the normal paper work.
But I was wrong, for the past two days I have done nothing but watch videos made in the 80's which I may add are poorly made, they also have me taking tons of tests which happen to be redundant because according to my trainer they want the information to be drilled into my brain. I also might add that I am in a isolated room by myself taking these tests so after awhile you get a little bored start singing to yourself you know the usual. And your eyes also begin to hurt because you have been focused on a computer screen for the past three hours.
Now I do have some good news I got to go out on a "buddy lunch" yesterday with one of the other co-workers and its where they take the new employee out for lunch and the other employee talks about the bank and answers any questions that the new employee would like to know. Well the lady I got was very entertaining which I was thankful for because I didn't have to have an awkward lunch and I also got my lunch payed for which made my day!
I hope my training today will be more exciting but I have a feeling it might not because I haven't finished all of my tests. But cross your fingers for me that hopefully next week I will start hands on training and not be sitting alone in an isolated room taking more tests.
blahh thats how it was when i was a server at Chili's (I know..really awesome) but I had to take a test every night of my training!!!!
ReplyDeleteTraining always sucks. We still have these elearning every once in awhile we have to take and it is over stuff I already know but yet fail and half to take until I pass. Those tests never go away!

ReplyDeleteYou'll do great at the bank! Before you know it, you won't have to think about the information you're learning anymore, as it will be ingrained in your memory...
ReplyDeleteGROSS!! Good luck with that today!
