On The Job Training.
You're working. Maybe two employers. Maybe more. Since you've been working you've had training probably of some sort at every place you've worked. Training is essential to most positions, in particular, "entry level" as they are called. Sometimes this training is careful and extensive. Other training can be perfunctory: " Read this sheet. Sign it. You're trained." Following the training you started your shifts and then the real training, the On The Job training began. Showing up on time, working with other employees, getting along with management and getting along with customers, these are the real experiences which add up to On The Job Training. This set of behaviours which by now you have accumulated is the basis of your eventual career. Education, what you are experience in school, is critical for your eventual success in your chosen career. But, training, the kind you have been providing for your self since your first job, instills in you the set of daily skills necessary to sustain your self in what ever work you choose. While your current employment probably does not pay all that well and is also not your last position don't discount the training you have provided for your self in this job. By showing up regularly and functioning effectively you have built for yourself a solid foundation of behaviors which will move you to and through your career. Keep up the good work.
