Thrown Into The Sea To Learn How To Swim

I am transfered to the other department within the Japanese Corporate Banking Division. I am supposed to provide administrative support to one of the marketing teams in that department. This attachment would be for at least a month. Apparently, a lady left the team not too long ago, and the company has yet to find anyone to replace her. I am the next best substitute for them now. I don't think I have learnt everything I need to know for the last one month to apply to this position.

Now I truly feel like I'm being thrown into the deep sea, and forced to learn how to swim by myself. Perhaps it's a blessing in disguise. I could potentially learn a lot more than the first one month acting busy most of the time. Whatever I learnt now could also be useful to my future career as a marketing officer.

Yet, at the same time, I felt the disbelief when my mentor knew about my transfer and that the boss has assigned me a team to handle all by myself. I knew she didn't like me as much as she likes Mr. D (who was previously interning at my department). I tried not to ask her too many questions. Instead, I will ask around different people at workplace. Of course, I will try to figure out on my own first before asking around. I guess that would be the best option for me at this current stage.

I hope everything at work will eventually work out. I can gain the trust and respect from my bosses with the added responsibilities.

P.S. With great power comes great responsibilities.
