I've been in your shoes many times as far as that 90 day thing goes. It's good that you realize the importance of that period and it's ok for it to trouble you somewhat but shouldn't to any great great degree unless you're having some obvious problems that are complicating it.

Your boss seems to have told you the goods and that's what she's there for. She said you were doing well but like anyone has room to improve. Fair enough assessment and honest too.

90 days means what the other posters said. Assessment period. Is there a union where you work? That would be something I could comment on with some knowledge. Tip of the hat to you by the way Splitimage!....I'm from Ontario too and have put my miles in at the plants around here over the years.

I've worried myself Ruby. Every time. A job is one of the most essential aspects of living of course. One wants to get it together and have it be as smooth as it can too. You've been given no real reason to worry from what you said your boss said. Refuse your imaginations and fears. That's likely where the stress originates. I'm sure you're not dallying your time away there hoping to squeek by without anyone noticing you're not working as hard as you should. Your boss is giving you good reason to allow yourself to relax your worries. Good luck by the way. Jobs are just what the word is Jobs...plural. There are more if one DOESN't work out for ANY reason. Keep going as you are and best wishes with it all. I've been there...work hard and let that speak for itself.
