I thought we were the only company with zero training!

lol I feel this

Couple that with the company not having a clear layout of duties for your position and not enough work for you to do, and that was my first sales job. They hired me and one person internally for the same job and the person internally took all the work and then told the owner that I wouldn't help even though I would ask her everyday of there was anything I could help with. Spent 9 months asking for things to do and not being given anything and then getting scolded because I wasn't doing anything. Then they fired me for my "lack of motivation." This was also a metal supplier.
