I've been in the midst of transitioning between jobs and today was my first offical day at the new job. I had orientations for a couple hours and made it through the stress of the first day. I had my moments of bad thoughts, but I made it through and hope to take it one day at a time and keep getting more and more comfort. I do find some humor in this b/c they have me set up to take 4 training courses and those kinds of setting are not in my comfort zone, haha, so this job is REALLY going to be forcing me to face a lot of fearful situations. It might give me some gray hairs and ulcers, but it should help with my anxiety condition overall =-) I hope this job change and being at this zoo will turn out to be a good thing for me. Definitely keeps me busier than my last job. Keep fingers crossed, next week is going to be a doozy! I have to do a customer service training class--yick. thanks for support Jocelyn

Paulie, Haha, you know they actually get someone from Disney to come in and run these courses? God help me please =-) I'm pretty light and friendly with people, but if they try to get me to do that really corny, over the top stuff, I dont know! haha Maybe I'll fake a panic attack if a real one doesnt show it's ugly head.
