Thanks guys.

Done.

Randomly came across this and decided to participate

Boku n- ah... you've already covered the 4ch trolling! I guess I'll do it seriously... >_<

Thanks. Though to be honest, I probably am going to get something like that at some point.

Done!

When you mentioned trolling, in my mind's eye I saw like 70 people replying that one shota anime everywhere, as people from 4chan are wont to do.

Getting the hang of a new job can always be hard as smurf.

While I haven't been training at it consistently yet, I've been having a lot of trouble with a few things learning to cook at my job. This will be my first week going in on a weekend as the second cook, no one training me. I am nervous as all hell.

All I can say is take a deep breath, reflect on what you smurfed up on, and know no one has this trout down after a couple weeks.

Good for you that you have managed to blend in. With some more time, I think you should be able to adapt just fine!

Congrats on your first paycheck!! Go get something to reward yourself!!

It'll take time to get to know the people you work with. You're not supposed to be best friends with them right away.

I've been a member of the food industry for a while. it's very hard being on your feet for that long. at my last job, I worked in an Italian restaurant's kitchen. there would be days (mainly Sundays) where I would work 12-14 hour shifts without taking a break. just stick with it! people will always want to eat, so in a way you have a type of "job security". eventually, you will find common ground with the people that you work with. just give it a few weeks. once you get your first Great paycheck, I'm sure that you'll feel a little bit better about things. I feel the same way as you every time I start a job. it's almost like starting a new year at school or something. I couldn't agree with you more about the whole "it's not what you, but who you know" thing more. but you can be one of those people that can go in the "who you know" bracket. just be yourself and have a positive performance.

It will take some time before you can adapt fully to the new environment. Give yourself some time and you will do just fine.

Hopefully having this job will help you break out of your shell a little, you know? My job is super antisocial, so I'm a little bit envious of jobs like yours where it's important to get to know people.

Either way, congrats on the job!
