I will start my new job at 9:30 AM. I'm always a bit nervous at first, but not nearly so much as I used to be. I found an antidote to new-job nervousness several years ago. A change in attitude can make a world of difference. Instead of thinking 'New Job' , I started thinking of it as 'New Skills'.
To date, I have learned:
+ to iron shirts properly.
+ to water plants
+ to judge the age of picked sweet corn
+ to operate a slicer
+ to hang clothing properly
+ the importance of signage to a business
+ to make change properly (a lost art)
Today I'm looking forward to an orientation and paperwork and my first experience making ice cream cones. I expect to end the day sticky but happy.
Some things never change.
