embarrassing
Today i was really embarrassed at my office. I am a new one, and this is my first time to work as an import forwarder, so I have less knowledge about import tradings. Then what is happening is that i am all worthless and useless. I mean I am embarrassed and ashamed of myself because i'm just doing what others told me to, like 'oh you shouldn't...', 'now you should...', 'now please do this like this but not like this...'. I'm trying so hard to memorize many things to be helpful, but there are too many things to memorize, because each trading has each requirement, shipment, terms and rule. I am just like a chicken with no head. I said to myself in my heart "oh are you an idiot!!!!" when it took over 30 minutes or so to find out just one e-mail regarding a certain contract and reply it. When a person in charge called me, I had no idea about which contract and product she was talking about and just told her 'Let me make it sure if it works out then i'll call you back', cut off the phone, take so much time to check, no!! it's so embarrassing when I am useless for someone at office, though I get money from someone.

Today I was really embarrassed at my office. I am a newcomer and this is my first time to work as an import forwarder, so I have little knowledge about import tradings.

It's so embarrassing when I am useless for someone at the office, though I get money from someone. I get paid.******I had this experience too. Is there a co-worker (colleague) that can help you before or after work that can help you with some questions? Take one day at a time.

Hello Shino, one thing you may find useful is to keep a notebook which you can use to keep notes in, then when you have a problem you can quickly check back to see if you have had a similar problem in the past and how you dealt with it.
Don't worry, it is normal when you are a newbie!
