Tips for Starting A New Job

    The past week has been a whirlwind! Officially I have one week of my new job under my belt. My plan before starting my new job was to write a bunch of posts however life never goes as planned! I was running around like a chicken with its head cut off. Through all the chaos I did learn some helpful tips which I would like to share so let's get started!

Tip 1-

    Make a good first impression by showing up early and properly dressed. You need to remember that you are meeting a bunch of new people for the first time and they will remember this. You don't want to be the new girl who was 10 minutes late or the girl with messy greasy hair. Make a good first impression!

Tip 2-

   Bring something to write with and on. If someone is teaching you something you need to remember why not write it down. You'll also look like you're interested and care, which you should!

Tip 3-

    Smile! Smiling makes you more approachable which you want since you want to meet all your new coworkers. It's hard to remember the names of all the new people you meet but it's essential. You never know when you need Jim in accounting or Anna in marketing. As Buddy the Elf would say, "smiling's my favorite!"

Tip 4-

    Set out your clothes the night before. You will save time trying to find the perfect outfit. Setting out the make up you want to wear is also helpful. When everything is laid out you can't mess up or forget anything.

Tip 5-

    Wake up early! If you know you only need one hour to get ready, get up two hours early. Take your time getting ready. The first day is stressful so take time to distress before heading out. Personally I like to take my dog on a walk. It's a great way to get some air and distress as well as some exercise.

   Trust me guys these tips are really helpful! The other day I was walking Bailey (my puppy) before work and she cut her foot some how. She was bleeding a lot and I wasn't sure what to do. I called my mom (a nurse) and she ended up leaving work to help me. Since I had an outfit planned and I woke up early to go on our walk I was able to get ready in the five minutes I had. You never know when trouble knocks on your door so you must be prepared! And if you were wondering Bailey is better and healing well!
