Tips for a young guy in the workplace

The other day I worked was at a factory and had a little conflict there: we were struggling with something and a superior came to help us and after a while she was getting repetitive at what she was doing and saying and I told her to go away because of that and then she got mad at me (which was a stupid to do/say of course, I know that). I still had a good work day there though but still: the 2 work days I talk about (gas station/factory) weren't 100% successful so I feel a bit insecure about my future working endeavors because of that and that's why I made this thread.


Here's a good way to communicate with a boss, when you're doing a low level shit kicker job.

Listen to everything and then repeat back what you understood.

For example: "OK, when I answer the phone, you want me to help the caller with whatever. Unless it involves X or Y, then you want me to pass it to a supervisor".

Another good way to communicate is to protect the boss from surprises.

If something unusual happens at work that your boss might be concerned about knowing, you say something like: "Today X happened. It's on the security camera at 9:53. I did A, B and C. You don't need to take any action about this if you don't want to. I just wanted you to be aware of it".

The ideal employee for a basic job is someone who's reliable and respectful, can do the job, follows instructions and doesn't make waves.
