I recently landed a part-time job in the medical field after a long and challenging job search filled with applications and interviews. My role involves stocking supplies and assisting in the office, which includes tasks like emptying shred boxes, keeping the fridge stocked for patients, and checking invoices against deliveries. I was overjoyed when I received the job offer and couldn't help but cry tears of gratitude. However, just two weeks in, I'm finding it really tough. The workload feels overwhelming, and I often struggle to complete everything required of me during my shift. I thought I had finally caught up last Thursday, only to receive a note from my manager saying I hadn't stocked the doctor's offices correctly, which left me feeling embarrassed and scared. I've been tracking my steps with a pedometer and discovered I've gone up and down the office staircase 28 times in one shift! I'm physically exhausted when I get home, but it's the emotional toll that's really hitting me hard. I keep worrying that I'm not performing well enough and that I might get fired, which terrifies me since I've never been let go from a job before. The thought of going back to job searching feels daunting. I'm reaching out for some encouragement and would appreciate any tips from others who have worked in similar environments to help me succeed in my new role.
