I start my dream job tommorow but im terrified !

1 minute read time.

It seems a long time coming but i start work at the hospital tommorow ,i have wanted this job for so long and as i said to someone if its right it will happen , i am a firm believer in fate, so why am i so worried ? , im not sure if ive got the confidence to start again , ive been through so much ,and yes thats given me strength ,

Also im not ready to tell people im a widow ,its such a hard conversation but of course im still wearing all my rings and not sure if i can face not wearing them at work , as normal policy is no rings ,i also wear ju,s wedding ring on my necklace and we not allowed them either for health and safety ,

On the positive side which i always try and see , ive done so much studying over last few weeks so that should be a good start if i can get over my nerves , it will be a shock to my brain doing a 40 hour week again and using my brain ,

Im just trying to keep in my mind how proud ju would have been of me and hope that gets me through tommorow because if im honest im shaking in my boots, which i also was at the interview but that worked out ok , so lets hope so does tommorow , i will let you all know how it go,s hugs xxxx

    Good luck for tomorrow Jenni - you got the job because the hospital wants you.  Even people who haven't been through troubled times can feel nervous.  You survived the interview and you WILL survive the first morning - this is a new beginning for you and you need not mention your private life to anyone until  you find yourself a friend among your colleagues.  Everyone at the hospital will  know you will be nervous too so, just say you're nervous but excited to be joining in with everyone.  All the above messages and me are thinking of you as well.  You will be okay - deep breath, think of Ju looking down on you with great pride - priceless!

    Jenni,

    the first day at any new job is always a nervous experience, but I'm certain you will do just fine. As you say, this is your dream job so you will adapt very quickly I'm sure.

    The very best wishes, and yes ju would be so proud of you.

    love and hugs
