Guest Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 Hi all, well i survived my first day at the new job, it was good to be working but also bitter sweet because i so miss my old place and there way of doing things. of course i realise each setting is so unique and i will soon get used to the way of working at the new nursery, and will surely adjust...... i guess its always hard being the new face even when i have worked there many years ago. some things have not changed much at all, which is nice, where as obviously other things have changed and i need to learn the new way of working. I just hope i don't feel like the new person for too long, cos its not really a nice feeling. Dawn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kittycat1279 Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 Well done for getting through the first day. Being new is always hard but I bet by this time next week you will be well and truly settled in and feel like you've been there for years!!! Enjoy tomorrow xxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sue R Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 Hi Dawn, I well remember my first day in my current employment - it marked my return to full-time working after 22 years and it was SUCH a culture shock! I wasn't sure I'd ever settle, but I can't imagine working anywhere else now. Enjoy tomorrow, this week and all the others to come!

dublinbay Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 Good for you getting through your first day. We all go through these times Dawn but I'm sure you'll settle in quickly and will feel more settled soon. Best of luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 You'll get there, Dawn! Every day will become a little easier until you feel right at home - and remember, even your closest friends were strangers once! Nona Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deb Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 I've been in my new job for 2 and a half months now and I think it took me at least the first six weeks to feel settled, and I still have a lot to learn, I keep finding new toys, it was unsettling not knowing which child belonged to which parent, and even now I don't have the advantage of knowing the context or background, or who is related to who though I guess that could also be considered an advantage. Give yourself time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
