Hello!
So for some context, I’m 21, I’ve just graduated, and I’ve been working for around the past five years. All through my A-Levels and University, I’ve worked retail (as well as a brief period in which I was also working as a tutor). I’ve been applying for ‘proper jobs’ (that is to say, in my head, something salaried and with consistent hours rather than changing shifts) since . . April, maybe? March?
And today it happened! I got offered a call-centre/customer-service-esque job. 40hrs / week, salaried — nothing incredible, and not in my field or anything, but something solid. Enough that I can afford to live and also save a decent bit whilst I’m living with friends. I accepted, handed in my notice at my current retail job, and am just getting my contract sorted.
For maybe an hour or so this morning, I was ecstatic, but ever since . . I’ve just felt incredibly anxious? And I can’t even fully place exactly why. I’m scared of jumping from a job that’s mind numbing in one way to one that may be mind numbing in another. I’m scared of leaving the coworkers — mostly my age — that I click so well with in retail. I’m scared that I’m never going to get anywhere meaningful, that I’m going to struggle with that many hours all at once, that I’m going to regret it, that I’m going to be awful at it, that I won’t get along with the people, that it’ll make me depressed, that I won’t have any opportunity to progress . . There are so many things, so many anxieties, that didn’t hit me until I actually accepted the job. I know I can’t work retail forever (God knows I don’t want to), but this feels like a lot.
Is this normal going into your first ‘actual’ job? Is it ever as bad as I’m imagining? This is all so new and feels so intense — it’s going to be a huge change to the system, and I’m anxious about the entire thing
