#32: I’m Sweating Already

New jobs rarely match your expectations when you walk in the door. Sure, the description is pretty much the same, but the number of things you’re supposed to learn in a single day seems near impossible! You often feel like you’ve aged ten years by 11 am, and lunch can’t come soon enough.
