I have been hired by an agency to do family therapy. I'm really happy for the opportunity and it's great experience for my career. I'm supposed to start Tuesday, 5/27.
So the issue now is I am waiting for my school to verify my master's degree because I just graduated last week. Because of their auditing process, they don't know if they can get it in on time. Today is the last day before the auditor goes on vacation and Monday is a holiday here. So if she can't verify my degree today, I can't start until the next agency orientation, which is June 9th. Then I will miss the position-specific training for my position, which only comes around every couple months. So I feel like I will start off behind everybody else.
I've been back and forth with the HR people throughout the process and my supervisor. They keep saying that if it doesn't get verified, they'll just push me to the 9th. However I always have anxiety and personalize things so I am thinking that I am going to look bad because the school isn't verifying the degree on time. Like... I will start with a mark on my record even though this is really out of my hands or they will decide they don't want to wait and fire me before I even start.
Does anybody else personalize things or blame themselves for things that aren't their fault? I always do, especially with work. I beat myself up over things that I did my best at and are out of my hands.
