This sounds like the ideal type for entry into the business world where you are expected to adapt the particular corporate culture of the Corporation that hires you.

However big or small the company, you are going to have to adapt to the company that hires you or employment will be terminated. I don't need or want an employee to start out with "Well, in my previous company, they did it this way." or "I have an idea how to best do this.". I get that and I hand them a copy of the classifieds and a copy of mapquest to the unemployment office.
I don't need or want your ideas. You just walked in the door. You do it my way or it's the highway. Now after you put in your time and know the job, lets talk about how to improve the process. I have a process in play. I don't want to have to bail you out of a mess with a process I have never used. When you are in trouble, if you follow the process I laid out, it is easier for me to recover the mistake. Like I said, when you are more familiar, your opinion is now carrying weight.
