So, I start my new job tomorrow.
This is the first time I've been in a management position, full time (even if it's a poor excuse for one, the money I'm earning says I'll have at least SOME staff responsibility). I'm absolutely packing it. I'm shy at the best of times, let alone around new people that I don't know. I really hope their expectations aren't too high either... I made it clear in the interview that not only hadn't I had a job like this before, I wouldn't know where to start if I was given the position, but they made it clear that I'd have "all the guidance and support" I needed. Hope they follow through.
To coin an excellent early 90s Australian comedy phrase...
I'm shit scared.
But at the same time, impossibly excited. The things this job could do for me, financially, emotionally and socially are huge. It'd be nice to have some friends, and some money, and to know that I work within an industry that I love. I'm really looking forward to feeling that way, even if it's only one day out of every working week.
Fuck, I really hope I can make this work.

So what are you doing exactly? And did you say you were working in town? Perhaps post-tafe-madness we could catch up, it'd be nice to finally meet you in the flesh..
