First day on the job was great! There is so much to learn and so many names to remember. I know in a couple months I will be a pro and wonder what I was so stressed about but right now?... I'm stressed, though in the best possible way.
Everyone I met was so nice and offered me help whenever I need it. I was given a tour of the sheet metal and piping shop and that was very interesting. I actually got to see a sheet of metal go from a flat sheet to a square tube ready to be riveted together. Pretty cool stuff.
Today I have to tackle the phones... This is by far causing me the most stress. I keep telling myself the worse thing that can happen is that I accidentally hang up on someone, or transfer someone to the wrong person, or say "sh**" out loud in someone's ear... GAH!
Thanks to all of you for your words of congratulations and encouragement, they really mean a lot to me!
Stay tuned for more updates!
You're awesome. The phone thing stresses me out too. I hate the phone. But I know you're going to be fab at this job!

YES! Good luck adjusting to the phones. You're right, the worst that could happen are the three things you said. That's it. It's not the end of the world if any of those things happen, either.
