The one thing all these relationships would have in common is that you don’t know what it’s going to be like. We all have our expectations; in courtship, before marriage, research and planning, before starting a business, and the interview before starting the job. Not even the interview and the expectations of my job role, would have prepared me for the strange task I was faced with on my first day on a new job. I had just completed my eight week training as a Cisco Certified Network Administrator, (CCNA), and had been wondering how I would…

First Day Of The First Job I can say that I know the fear and stress of starting a new job. The kind of fear that made me nervous when I walked into the workplace and the feeling of not know what this new experience would be like.
