Communication:

Intercourse by words, letters, or messages; interchange of thoughts or opinions, by conference or other means; conference; correspondence -- Dictonary.com definition

Why is this such a hard concept to grasp? Is the company I work for the only one not capable of this simple task?
Unless, of course, you make an error.
Then you get all the communication you've ever wanted, all rolled up into a single issue.

Don't get me wrong... I enjoy my job. Except for times like this.
A few months ago, I was asked by a friend that I work with if I ever thought of moving into a sales manager role, because that was something he could see me doing well at. When given the chance, I did. Now, I'm starting to wonder about the wisdom of that action. If not in general, then at least with this company.
-They already assume that I know everything because I've been there for 6 years. Well, guess what. I DON'T. I worked in the warehouse and tech departments. They are radically different than sales.
-The only feedback you get is when something goes down the shitter. It kind of makes it difficult to motivate others when every time they talk to you, they're sucking your motivation dry.
-and on, and on, and on....

I think I'll hold off until the end of my three month probation period, and see how I feel about everything then.
See if they think I'm worth keeping, despite the fuck ups* that they seem to enjoy pointing out.
