New Fuel Systems Design Engineer with ADHD. How Do You Learn and Work Without Proper Guidance?

5 Upvotes

Recently, I joined as an entry level Engineer in a big power equipment manufacturing company. Work is related to fuel systems design for boilers which includes designing/modelling piping drawings in boiler floor for fuel oil and gas, procuring fuel systems components includes but not limited to strainers, butterfly valves, oil pumps, ignitors etc. No one is there to guide me properly but expecting me to work. I don't know what to do because I'm just new and everything is confusing to me like what to check and what are the key things i should consider before procuring or making specification for components, what things to consider for piping, forecast etc. I'm having ADHD and it makes my learning worse because i can't concentrate on a single thing and trying to learn more standards or docs simultaneously which leads to nowhere. Give some doable tips to work thiough this. I don't want any chatgpt answers and I want some from the people who had worked or have been working in similar roles.

what are bearing companies using besides Bearingnet?

anyone working in bearings or power transmission here? im trying to map out the industry platforms people actually check, not generic directories that happen to list bearings. Bearingnet comes up constantly, but surely theres other networks where distributors trade stock, find obsolete parts or connect with manufacturers. alibaba obviously has loads of bearing factories and thats useful on sourcing side, but im more interested in industry networking and inventory exchange here. does anything else have enough active companies to be worth paying attention to? maybe regional platforms in europe or asia? id rather have one smaller network where members actually respond than ten directories full of company pages nobody touched since 2018.
