Tomorrow I start my new position at work. I am super anxious about it. I KNOW I am going to mess up....it's expected.
I don't want to go to work tomorrow, but I have no choice. I signed up for this and now I have to do it.

Onlymedid, I wish you all the luck in the world! I know anxiety so well. It's awful. But please believe in yourself. You CAN do it!

gosh, i don't know you - but i think you are very brave.

i am terrified about looking for a job - i am sooo shy and so afraid to mess up.

i think you are a warrior for getting this far - and i just know you will do a good job

and keep in mind - everyone - every single person on the planet makes a mistake here and there - it is normal. it would be strange if you never made a mistake so please try to keep that in mind.

my very best wishes to you

Thanks, everyone. Yesterday went better than I thought because we didn't get a single phone call.

However, last night I barely slept, had a migraine and felt sick to my stomach, so I didn't go to work today. I have been with the company for 2 years and have only called in sick a few times. So, today I called it. It's bad because the boss man was coming in today and will be there tomorrow, too....I hope he doesn't give me heck for not coming in.

Oh, did I mention that the little sleep consisted of a nightmare about the job?! Yeah, it was not fun!

I feel a bit better now because I have been dozing off on the couch for the past 5 hour and took lots of headache meds. Now, the hubby is making me some lunch. I should be good to go tomorrow.

everyone
