Starting to get nervous for Monday

I'm starting to get nervous about starting my new job. I know they say it takes about 6 months to feel comfortable in a new job, so I hope that time goes by fast. I am excited about it too, and I know I can do it, it's just my memory isn't so good anymore, so I don't catch on as quick as I used to. Any good tips on starting a new job?

I hope it will take less than 6 month to feel comfortable with your new job. I remember that I was comfortable after only one month. Good luck for tomorrow.

Good luck at your new job! I just try to be friendly, and ask questions so I know that I'm doing everything correctly. It's hard starting a new job.

Ya true! I also experienced this situation. However, it take only 2-3 months for me to adapt.

When I was working, it took me about 3 weeks to get comfortable with a new job in accounting.

Good luck with your new job and I know you'll do well. I can't offer any tips as I retired a few years ago
