Need a reality check

Just started a inhouse design job a month ago. Before i worked in an ad-agency for 7 years.

In my last job i was deeply frustrated cause all the structure, orga and team spirit declined really bad over the years. Really wanted to try inhouse. Found something in the producing sector and thought thats exactly my thing.

But here is even worse. My boss is indecisive and keeps on ghosting the team for important questions. There is no structure whatsoever. My team is 1/5 the size as before but nobody feels informed about whats going on in the processes.

Im the only designer and the previous designer should have onboard me for the first 3 weeks but he already called in sick when i started.

The worst thing is how they work with external design agencies. Just read the email conversations about a rebrand and i could not believe with how little strategy they work. My boss keeps on sending them pretty random instructions. They tell me they are in the final stages of the design but with every email he would give em a new name for the brand. Also i get barely involved in the process.

Man i feel like my boss is not interested in making good work possible at all.

Good thing is of course that i have way less pressure and dont have to track so accurately as before. But im 31 and i want to grow instead of sitting around waiting to get home.

How normal is it that? Am i overreacting? Is it normal that a boss doesnt care if he gives you a good setup / workflow for quality output?

Another day, another rant in here. Sorry.

Unfähigkeit macht mich aggressiv?! Was steckt dahinter

Gestern gab es einen sehr interessanten Post hier von einer Person die meinte sie schafft es nicht lange iwo zu arbeiten da sie sich immer langweilt wenn sie in den ersten 3 Monaten den Laden einmal komplett aufgeräumt hat und die Unfähigkeit der anderen sie aggressiv macht.

Auch wenn ich nicht so der Überflieger auf neuen Arbeit bin, merke ich letzteres bei mir auch immer wieder.

-> Sone richtige Wut auf Leute die sich „anstellen“, für mich universelles Wissen nicht haben oder einfach unnötig langsam sind.

In den Kommentaren ging es dann sehr ab da jemand diese Dinge sehr gut mit eigenen Defiziten erklären konnte. Ich glaube es ging ums „nicht gut genug sein“ Leider war der Post schon weg als ich ihn nochmal genau lesen wollte.

Was steckt eurer Meinung nach dahinter? Wo kann man am eigenen Selbstwert arbeiten sodass man in solchen Situationen aufm Boden bleibt?
