See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Apparently you've got a lot of packing to do.

My name is not in the top 100; my brothers are both in the top 35; and I'm pretty sure Matilda isn't even in the top 1,000, which is baffling considering how people flip out with delight when they hear her name.

ION, I am having a work-related panic attack. I suck, I can't do this, I'm going to fail spectacularly and they're all going to hate me, which is probably okay because even taking this job was a huge and horrible mistake. I have no idea how much, if any, of this is even remotely based in objective fact and how much is my brain and period-related hormonal wackiness conspiring to make me temporarily insane, but it is No. Fun. and it can stop anytime now, please.

(What Jacqueline doesn't know, is we've replace this cyber cookie with a cookie-shaped valium. Let's see if can taste the difference.)

Those, btw, are all reasonable fears at one time or another.

It's just their intensity and pile-on-ing that's the problem.

Hairpats. I cope with feeling like a disaster with the knowledge that, for all I might be a disaster, at least I wear my underwear under my clothes.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

JZ, someone gave me this whole rubric about doing a new job that was enormously helpful when I was having job freak-outs. I can't quite remember it, but it's basically about knowledge vs. competence. I'm willing to bet you've just gotten to the part where you know exactly how much you don't know yet -- because there's no way you could know it all yet -- and that's the freak-out point.

In short, the objective fact is that you're not an expert at this job yet, but that's really OK.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Our wings are not tired.

and I'm pretty sure Matilda isn't even in the top 1,000

I bet it's in the top 10 in Australia, though. ETA: nope, it's only 26.

JZ, you'll be fine. I felt the same way for the first 6 months in my current job. And I've only been there for 7 months!

Me neither.

Actually, I though I heard he died years ago. Guess not....
