No one listens or even wants to hear your ideas; they look down on you for being young and "inexperienced" despite the fact that you can spot the flaws in the system that no one else wants to acknowledge. Bosses give you the most menial tasks, enslaving you to monotonous repetition despite the fact that you feel you have more to offer.
As things progress, the more you try to improve things, delivering creative new ideas, the more resistance you're met with from the beaten-down workers and their superiors who long ago learned to stop rocking the boat and stick to the status quo. Over time, despite promising yourself otherwise, you too succumb to this, creative ideas fading into the past and being replaced by dull, dreary, rigid, and repetitive processes.
All that optimism aside, it's important to be prepared for your first day. These weary workers gathered in this online thread and shared their tips for workers just starting out in the working world for the first time.
