Until about an hour before quitting time. I answered a question on the phone and misunderstood apparantly and it set in motion a big mess.
I tried to apologize and fix it as best as I could but I won't be surprised if I get to work in the morning and get called to someone's office :O
It was right at a time that I was holding 4 notes in my hand of things to do, answering phone calls right and left and trying to pay attention to 2 or 3 other people while moments away from a panic attack! When I finally clocked out and went home, it took about an hour to unwind and relax.
Yesterday went well and I felt like I did pretty good-then bam.
If I don't start feeling more comfortable soon, this may not be the job for me. I don't mind the chaotic atmosphere one bit, but that mixed with me not knowing how to handle it all makes me really uneasy-I hate to feel incompetent. I'm sure there are many times that I look like a deer caught in headlights.
Every job I have ever had I felt a high level of competency in what I was doing and I felt comfortable-I keep having to remind myself that it took some time to get there and that this too shall pass.
I hope everyone is having a great week and has a wonderful weekend :)

I've so been there, a bunch of phones ringing, someone perhaps phrases the question incorrectly and whamo, a mess.
Stress is not a good thing, but it may all iron out as you get more familiar with everything.
Have a great weekend!! :)
