when its up at operating temperature the oil is hot and thins down and makes for easier shifting, you could live with it or try an oil change if you haven't already tried it there could be any grade of oil in there?

as above, probably old oil or the wrong oil in it.
its not uncommon for people and mechanics to use incorrect spec oil.
