My first day went by without a hitch - the people were generally very friendly, my work station was already set up and good to go, and I've already been booked into formal training courses as of next week. Other than the general awkwardness that comes with starting a new job and not knowing anything about everything, I didn't feel completely horrid about my prospects there. In fact, I'm rather excited about it. I can't wait to get up to speed so I can just get on with things, settle in and enjoy myself.
I must say, it's rather nice to come home and not worry about what the next day will bring. That's got to be a good sign, so no complaining from me today. (Gasp!)
Now more importantly, know any primary school teachers in London that need work?

First day is always the most awkward. Sounds like its going to be great! :)

Nothing is never quite so scary as that first day. Very glad to hear it went so well!!
I used to teach as well, and I agree - the feeling of coming home without having to plan for for the next day is a GREAT feeling!
Congratulations. It will all get easier from here.
Yay on the new job!
Yay for you. Now that I am far too far into the teaching gig, I am also realizing how nice it was to have a job that you could leave at work...
That's great!! I'm so pleased that your first day went so well for you! :)
How did your school take it that you were leaving? I'm happy the new job is good - it'll feel so much different to working in a school, it's a breath of fresh air, I'm sure! :)
So Exciting!! You will do absolutley fantastic at this place! Huzzah!

You will settle in so perfectly! I'm glad you find a good new job!

If your first day went that well it's a good sign for what's to follow!
Sounds good so far... Good luck
Except you, of course.
I'm so happy for you that I wish I knew primary school teachers in London. But at this moment, I don't know anyone in London.
So happy that your first day went well for you. The first day is always the hardest so everything is certain to get easier from here on out :)

I'm so glad things are better at the new job. (F.Y.I. With your positive outlook, you can't go wrong!)

"she's got high hopes. high in the sky, apple pie hopes."

gosh, you're so brave!
That first day is the worst. Cheers to it being over!
Congratulations! I'm really happy that you are feeling better, and you are enjoying your new job, I know what it's like to dread going into work.
Congrats on a great first day!
That's perfect. I'm so happy that it went well. Congrats.
Woo hoo!
I have to say, your stuff being all set up already is HUGE! I've started so many jobs where they haven't even ordered me a pen, let alone a computer.
