    You made it thru the day, that's a good start ;)

    Well Done Calley :T


    I had more nerves today than yesterday and ended up bailing out at 11am due to this stinking heavy cold I have.

    But after a good sleep this afternoon I will be back tomorrow. Even though I have appointments to attend.

    They have been really good.


    Yours

    Have to say first week over and it was excellent, First day dragged but as the week progressed the more I liked the job, even got 4 days pay yesterday evening which made it all worth while, I thought I'd have to do a lying week

    Hello Both!

    I am 3 months into a new job, so wanted to offer sympathy (I'm going through it too) and also some encouragement.

    Above all, please remember that you were chosen for your job - you were chosen because someone else as well as you thought that you were up to the challenge - you should take confidence from that!

    Absolutely everyone is nervous going into a new situation, but please remember, whether you have just come from another job, or whether you are absolutely brand new and quivering after a while out of work - you were chosen for your job by at least one other person who has faith in you to perform well - why not give yourself the benefit of the doubt and have faith in YOURSELF.

    Good luck to you both - you deserve it!!

    Annie xx
