it's really just my supervisor. i get along with the others just fine. the environment is a little everyone for themselves, and there's next to no feel of comradory which i miss from my old job. location and pay are great, with standard benefits.
as for the reporting thing, he mentions that there will be a time that no one will be looking over me and i just work by myself and just resolve tasks from the list. i just don't know to earn respect and trust when i disagree with everything my supervisor does.
