I'm starting a new job tomorrow, and I'm really nervous. Any pointers to deal with my first day jitters?

Just get in there and give it your all. You'll be A-OK

Have a good breakfast, make sure that you have a pleasing breath, dress as the job requires, and smile and be friendly. Remember, everyone goes through the first day, on any job. Others have gone before, and succeeded, and many will come after you, Good Luck.

Your boss and co-workers will expect you to have the jitters. Don't worry they will understand, they have had to go through the same thing themsleves. Congratulations on the new job and good luck.

Get some sleep, eat a normal breakfast. Prepare tonight by laying your clothes and stuff out.
Tomorrow, be yourself! Be cheerful, professional, and polite. Everybody has had their first day before, and will know to take it easy on you for awhile. Good Luck!

Just remember, there will come a point in the day Monday when you'll sit back and think "Phew! Why did I let myself get so nervous? This is no biggie."
No worries! They hired you because they like you.
Just be yourself, be polite and pay attention.
You'll be fine!

oh I feel for you! I hate starting new jobs. I would try to go in with good amount of sleep so your alert. just try and stay focused. hopefully they treat you nice and the work isn't too hard. just relax. if things start to seem overwhelming ask for help or tell the trainer to back up a bit. they would rather go over it a few times then have you mess up. good luck :-)

Wake up in the morning and have a good breakfast. That will calm you down a bit and think about all the new friends you will make.

remember that everyone there has had a first day themselves. so take it easy today enjoying the time home and have a cup of tea to relax.

Look people in the eye. Smile. Walk erect. Don't slump. Answer questions, but don't talk too much. Laugh readily, but not loud.

Just remember that everyone has to go through this. That's my advice. You just have to get through the adjustment period. You'll be fine.
