First Day on the Job

It's like having to start your first day at school all over again...

My nerves kicked in at around 8pm last night and, of course, as expected I hardly slept. Having to start your new job and facing the first day that you anticipate so much for 4 weeks brings with it a fair amount of angst!

The drive to my new place of growth and development was probably the worst. By this stage the nerves had taken over and I felt like a Learner Driver being unleashed on Jozi's roads for the first time.

The most amazing part is that I work with such fantastic people. Had a massive bunch of flowers waiting for me on my desk. My entire office is made up of tarts. Something which worried me a little as generally tarts (who are not my direct awesome mates) don't get on with me so well. Never had a problem with the opposite sex though. But the tarts here are nothing short of tastic! The dirty talk has already started and they all seem like my kinda peeps.

With half of my first day almost completely gone, I am ecstatic. I have this little theory that all you have to do is get through the first day, the first week and then your first month before it's all smooth sailing and you have 100% of a clue as to what needs to get done.

So I am excited and can't wait for this little career journey to start. Fire up the engines on all cylinders!
