Ittybittycrazy in 9 to 5

 

 

Now that the Thanksgiving holiday is over, the reality of my having a new job is sinking in.

And I'm nervous.

  1. I haven't been living on an employee schedule.  Will I be able to get up in the morning and go to bed early enough at night?
  2. My butt has been imprinted on the couch for 6 months.  Will I have the energy to get through an 8 hour day?
  3. Am I completely out of practice talking that PC, polite way you have to in the corporate world?
  4. Have I forgotten how to actually do what I do? 
  5. This is a completely different industry for me.  Am I going to sound like an ignorant moron?
  6. New team-mates, new customers, new stakeholders... how do I make them all like me?
  7. Yes, I have new wellies (rain boots), but am I ready to actually walk to work in the rain?

And yes, I am also excited.  So I'm hanging onto that...
