There are not many stores here, but I have two left that I haven't checked. Otherwise I don't know what I am gonna wear tomorrow. I checked all the thrift store too just in case.

I am starting to get nervous now tho. OMG I hope this is not like all my other jobs where I talk to no one, do my job and leave, like a ghost. Part of my reason for going to work is social. And I am worried that if I do not make the right first impressions then I will not be able to break the mold I set. And this is my bf's place of employment, so he already knows most of these people, adding to my nervousness.

And what if they don't train me, or show me where things are, or what I am supposed to be doing, and then I fail. What if my bosses ( three in total ) don't like me, or are mean or nasty. I have not met any of them yet, since I had no interview or anything.

What if I have to be the quite loner, with the silly lunch box, and have to sit in the corner on breaks by myself.

Or my shoes are ugly, what shoes do you even where with dress pants, when you have to be on your feet cleaning for 8 hours. Runners? Won't that look weird?

Girl you are having the classic case of the nerves you get before starting a new job. It happens to all of us. It is completely normal. You will do just fine, just be yourself. You are such a wonderful person, how could people not like you? You are so pleasant, you never have a negative thing to say. I sure hope you find the pants you need. I found some shoes when I was working that went well with black pants by dr scholls (sp) at WalMart. They were prob under 20 but were black and looked kinda dressy but were super compfy. Best pair of shoes I ever bought for the money.
Certainly they will provide proper training, afterall they want you to do a good job just as much as you want to do one. Just breathe, try some of your meditation for a few minutes and calm yourself. Its going to be okay. You will do just fine. I have great faith in you.
