That happened to me. I was hired at a company, left to go to army basic training, came back and they didn't manage me at all for months. Then they gave me a job to do with about two minutes of explanation, forgot about me, then almost fired me 6 months later because I was doing it wrong. No management, no training. But I am still here almost 8 years later.

You being there for 8 more years was an unexpected twist. Any other "situation" that you could share?

Did it go better after those 6 months? I'd be keen to hear more of this story!
