There are bad organizations out there. Good companies, good employees, and terrible organizations. Someone who does the new hire paperwork, who can't be bothered to make the time to do it because they hate that part of their job. Someone who is supposed to train you, who figures that you'll be able to figure it out yourself... or maybe they are the person who used to do the job and resents being replaced?
I've seen your post below and that you've been "released from your probationary employment period". At least, that's how it's been presented to me in the past :-/ Please, please, believe this about what happened: it's a reflection on the company who hired you - couldn't be bothered to train you, didn't give you the courtesy of making you an official new hire and welcome you to the organization - they pretty much plugged you in and expected you to perform - NOT a company I would stay with. Good pay, good opportunity, but if they can't manage how a new hire is trained and incorporated, it's ulitmately not a good place to work.
I won't be trivial and tell you to look at this as a learning experience. It hurts! You have been let go! You left a perfectly good/horrible/depressing/underwhelming job to accept this!! I can tell you, just from these two posts on this board, that you are MUCH better off without this particular job.
And, once again, it's not YOU. It's THEM. Really.
