my official Job title is "IT: Production Support, Batch Admin"
I just started this job april 1st (prior to this I was supporting the Servers at the stores chainwide for a large company)
I still work for the same company, and my new spot is only about 7 cubicles away from my old spot.
I sit in a cubicle and watch the guy who knows what he's doing work. He also talks a lot and tells me what he's doing. Then, the next time something similar comes up, I go into my cube and do it while he goes off and takes a smoke break or BS's with the guy across the hall. I guess this process could be called "training." My boss told me he wanted to keep me in training for two months, (I'm hoping it will be over in under a month)
Also, when the boss comes by, my co-workers make fun of him, it looks like he's getting mad, but he generally just walks away since they do generally get all their work done.
