Started working

[lonely_world]

Today was my first day, and well, I don't feel good right now. It was repititious work, boring, but now i'm all freaking out worrying about how the other women took to me. I'm always too quiet, shy, and never know how to start a decent conversation, I hate this. I'm telling myself to just not care, but all I want to do is sleep and cry. I'm afraid that I will never feel confident with my peers, or myself, any suggestions?

I always look retarded at work. I hate it so much, cause I can't be myself. I have to be some phony douche. God, my life sucks.

Don't worry about it the first week or two of work is hard.
Right now i'm away from my job at an internship at a university where I have to go into peoples offices(i was given a master key), and inspect their computers and put stickers on them.
They all stare at me and make me feel uncomfortable for entering there office, and I have a hard time introducing myself to them, I don't really fit in there. I'm only just got into high school and all these guys are grad students and proffesors.
Basically, I don't mean to rant but my fear of going into peoples offices is interfering with my internship and my "boss" thinks I don't respect him enough to go into enough offices.

You shouldn't worry at all. I'm sure you'll meet new people, and they won't think you're any worse because you're shy on your first few days! It'll be better... just wait till you get paid.

Hi Lone_world,

I to also feel that way when its my first day at work...I've been thinking that, what if they don't like me there and what if i don't do my work well...And also I'm so shy that i don't feel like talking to them, sharing any conversation.

Well that is normal to someone who'll going to start there day in the office...But what i suggest is that don't overdo the nervousness...Even though how nervous you are just stay positive that everything will workout fine....And also I realize that you are not the only one whose afraid and shy...They also in the office are shy at you that will you also like them or not.

Good Luck to you and God Bless.
