First week at first job could be better

Post Reply New Topic

So I just got my first job. It's at a bookstore - a Christian bookstore - and it's pretty nice but I feel like it isn't going well. I'm not really social, and frequently I'm exhausted going in to work, so I don't talk a lot like some of my co-workers. (Not to be confused with not talking at all, I do actually talk to my co-workers and customers.) While learning the ropes, I've learned quickly, even though I still can't find everything and have a hard time handling a lot of customers at once or answering the phone. Each shift is really draining for me.

On top of that, I have a lot of other things going on right now, including a strong possibility that I may not be able to continue going to college.
