I started working at a manufacturing plant about 2.5 months ago. It is probably 100+ decibels in there, we have to wear earplugs, hairnet and safety glasses. I don't mind that so much, but I haven't had much training that was actually quality training. They put me with x coworker for x days or a week (we only work 3 days one week and 4 days the next w/12 hour shifts), then I got moved to another coworker and played ping pong like that with different people on different machines. Each machine has the same concept, but buttons/switches are different, some aren't labeled at all, etc. The people training me have usually been there for years and expect me to be on their level instantly. I'm sure they weren't that way when they first started. I feel halfway trained. The coworkers that they have put me with showed me a little bit at first, but then they each just stopped showing me stuff. They've moved me around from person to person and it honestly seems like I get on each person's nerves for seemingly no reason. They shake their head and talk amongst themselves about me as if saying that I'm "just not getting it" or something. Half or more of the plant is full of Asian people. Lots of Vietnamese. Every job description requires the ability to read, write and speak English per the job requirements. A coworker was appointed as "translator" during our plant meeting for the Vietnamese people to understand the slides in English. They put me with an American black guy recently to train. He has a bad attitude, seems to hate his job, shakes his head behind my back and seems to also talk about me to other coworkers. They act like I'm "not getting it" and I don't understand why. I'm 36 years old. I'm usually mistaken for being 18 to early 20's at most. I've worked in Retail, mail services, printing, manufacturing/production. I've been around. They act like I'm some new kid because I look young. I must be the youngest looking guy there in the whole plant and get stares constantly. Many of them hate me for being American. It feels like a dream when everybody seems to think I'm "not getting it" and I think I'm doing okay given the lack of training and length of time there. I was told it would take a year to learn all of the machines in the plant. Early on, instead of showing me how to do stuff and explaining why something is done, they would just want to do it themselves and didn't want me to make any adjustments or do much on the machine. A lot of my "training" wasn't training. They didn't want me to touch anything, but then later on would come back and say, "You should have adjusted this or that." Had I done so, they'd motion to me to not touch it. Seems like everyone there is like that. I'm currently working on 3 machines. Training me is the team lead that they've put me with (the bad attitude one) and the lady who barely speaks English. All 3 of us - 3 people for 3 machines total - can barely keep those 3 machines running. They mess up constantly. If I was fully trained, I'd have all 3 of those machines alone for the whole day for myself. Seems impossible. They can't seem to keep up with 3 of them, either.
She motions to me to watch the machines and points to her eyes, then goes and gets lost somewhere. If I'm fixing something on one machine and the other is messing up, she'll try to "call me out" like I should be over there at the exact same time fixing that one too. When something messes up for her, she takes her time on one machine and moseys over to the other to fix it. She doesn't have the same standard for me. I see that a lot of the things that my coworkers apply to me do not seem to be what they do, themselves. Whether for quality checking or whatever. I could show a coworker that the ink is too light and they'll say, "It's fine, it's fine...don't worry about it." 20 minutes later they'll look at it and say the ink is too light and I freaking just told them earlier and they waved me off. Then they'll act like I should have adjusted it before it got to that. The whole place just doesn't seem to make any sense. Is all manufacturing chaos and full of foreigners like this? My Vietnamese team lead has also gone around badmouthing me to other employees, as well. I was there for weeks before he admitted to me that he had not even shown me how to fill out the quality control paperwork properly. The American team lead that I'm training with now...dude waits until the very end of the day and goes through checking off the entire page of his 2-hour quality checks at the very end of the day. I'm just so frustrated. I'm looking for another job and planning to leave with no notice because they already have people working tons of overtime and I'm not even running my own machines. I'm training with two people right now. They have so much overtime because they can't keep people. An Asian guy who started with me and was the only other person in my orientation 2.5 months ago has spent all of his time on the opposite side of the plant on the easier machines. I've been running crazy on the hardest side and started on the hardest side for all of this time. He complains to me about how hard his side is and he'll probably quit when he gets to my side. His side would probably seem like a dream to me compared to what I deal with. I figure he'll quit when he gets to the side I'm on.
