You fucking liar.

First job? New job?

Either way - the beginning is the hardest. Stick with it, take it seriously (no matter what it is), and don't panic.

Unless the job crushes your soul over time. Then... the beginning may still be the hardest, but its not what's going to kill you.

Oh, and don't get high and go to work.

I used to do that when I was young(er).

I was an asshole. It's really dumb, and people can tell.

I work for my dad in my spare time. He has five rental buildings. 12 Apartments, 2 houses, and 1 commercial. I also cut and sell firewood over the summer. So I've worked before, but it's never been in any "official" capacity. This is in a grocery store with people I've never known. So it is technically my "first job"

As far as the "Don't panic" part...I have chronic anxiety issues. I don't think I am capable of NOT panicking. However, I also have a history of Rising to the Occasion. So often I get all of my anxiety and panicking worked out during the lead-up, then be just fine during the...whatever was causing me issues.

New jobs are a little overwhelming. Even entry level jobs. Everyone gets that. You'll do fine.

Haveing a job is good for the soul!
