First Day At Work

Wait how does this work again? Am I doing it right? Nope. Apparently not. Did anyone see that? Imma just do quick look around the room. Doesn’t look like anyone’s looking. Yep. Im in the clear. Score! Ok back to figuring this thing out.


So how does lunch work around here? Do we all break at the same time orrr is it like eat when you’re hungry? Mmm what’s he eating? Looks good.


Managers looking my way. SMILE. Totally know exactly what I’m doing and I’m not at all panicking. Can he tell I’m totally lost? I bet he can. Oh I’m so fired. He’s coming this way. What do I do?? Don’t pay attention. Don’t pay attention. Look busy. Look busy.

I. Wait. Are you serious?!? His office is there. So close to me. Welp I’m in trouble.


Is that the time? Funny I thought it was the same time 30 minutes ago.


How many times can I glance at the clock before becoming suspicious?


Oh look at that! My shift is over. Hm real shame. Fight the urge to run. Uh oh coworkers coming over. Look away. Don’t make eye contact!


“Oh yeah! It was great meeting everybody! And I had such an amazing first day today!”

“Oh you’re all going out after work?”

“And I’m welcome to join? A great opportunity to get to know everyone?”

Say no. Say no. Don’t say yes. Go home. Rest. Don’t see these people again.

“I’d love to! I can’t wait!”

Here we go.


(This is my first time writing something like this. I’m kinda new to writing, and wanted to branch out and try something different. Please share any feedback as I would love to improve my skills in whatever way I can!)
