I am 29yo. It's my first day in the office this coming monday. I am so nervous. I don't know why I got the job in the first place since I've been stuttering during the interview. I try to think of positive things but my mind tend to think worst things that may happen on my first day. What do I do? How do I relax?

Think, its only a job, you not going to get killed if you mess up,they expect that when you are a new employee,they must have seen something in you that you don't see, they hired you ...so be more confident in yourself.....they are humans too, and just don't expect anything to happen, if it does just act like a competent new worker and deal with it in a mature way...if you don't know something don't be afraid to ask,I worked for a company for almost 15 years, i was supervisor,i had to quit because I became disable with a muscle disorder. But I know you have a traing period and they expect you to make some mistakes,and if you don't great,if you do learn form them,just don't try to be something your not that comes off very phony and is not a good trait for any worker new or old....you'll be fine.believe in yourself, Good luck

First, take a couple deep breaths. Now, why would a company hire you if you didn't fit the position they need? Obviously, they liked you, whether you stuttered or not. Think of this as a new beginning. Whatever bad experiences you may have had in the past, they don't have to happen this time. Remember, you are no better, nor any worse, than anyone else on this planet. You're you, and you're worthy. Good luck to you.

Congrates to you on your new job! Don't worry too much about making a mistake, if you do make one you'll learn from it. Even the boss makes mistakes. They must have liked what they saw during your interview or they wouldn't have hired you. I think people who do some worrying make better workers then those who could care less what happens.
