Hi everyone,
I really need some help and support right now. I work for an international fast food company and have just been moved to open a brand new store with loads of new procedures and systems. At first I was excited as this is a huge opportunity for me.
I didn't expect it to be easy. Trying to start up a store with loads of new employees that need training. But it's a lot harder than I expected it to be. It's busy and stressful and because it's such a groundbreaking new store there's lots of pressure from hierarchy coming to visit, which freaks me out at the best of times.
However now I really panic about going in and running shifts. I keep telling myself that I know how to do my job and all I can do is my best but the pressure is getting to me big time and I'm losing sleep because I'm lying in bed panicking about the next day.
What I need to know is of anyone has got any tips on how to let go of all this panic. I need to be able to turn up. Stay calm at my job and then go home and not panic about how the shift went or about the next one.
Any advice would be much appreciated. I've tried being stern with myself but it's not working.
Thank you
Sara
