A company hires two new employees. While Ellen is training Seth, she gives him a detailed explanation of what he has to do and what he should do if he wants to be promoted in the company. Jenny, who has been working at the company for years, has a very different position than Thomas, the new employee whom she is training. She tells him all about her job and expectations, but has little information to give him on what his job will entail. What is Thomas MOST LIKELY to feel?
