Too little to late

Why is it that when your employers put on training, it is never quite what you need. I have sat through a whole day of mind numbing training which would have been useful at the start of my previous position but instead has been offered as I move into a new role and appears to have been designed to suit my current needs. The upshot of this training is that everything is the responsibility of the social work manager. In the words of Mrs. Mc M "you may as well allocate all the cases to me". Should I take this on board you may never hear from me again as it probably means I have set up home in the derelict and crumbling building which I call my place of work.

Tomorrow is my first day in my new post. My plan is to assume an air of confidence. On being asked for advice or to make decisions I will look as if I am considering all options, say "I'll think about that" close the door when they leave and then panic. I think this might work as people appear to believe I know what I am talking about - Oh the tangled webs we weave.
