The New Job


Most likely, the new job will:

  • Be harder than they described but easier than you imagined.
  • Have little in common with the job description.
  • Require longer hours than anticipated.
  • Bring some unpleasant surprises.
  • Be more interesting than any outsider would predict.
  • Often cause you to "fake it til you make it."
  • Give you many senseless worries.
  • Pay less than you deserve.
  • Teach you a great deal about people.
  • Hone a particular skill.
  • Be what you make it.

    I'd also add 'contain pitfalls you won't recognize until later as pitfalls.' Which you may or may not have avoided when first encountered.
