I started a new job yesterday, it's only 4 hours a day (I have a small child) so I thought it couldn't be very stressful. Well I was wrong! Apart from the 2 business owners, I'm the only other employee. It was meant to be an admin assistant position but within the first hour of being there they had me leading a software project which I'm really struggling with as I don't even understand the basics of the business. I'm struggling with their expectation of me, I just wanted a nice easy office job which is how it was advertised.
We really need the money, and I don't want to be a let down (even though my husband is really supportive), but I literally feel sick at the thought of work, and that I now have to go to this place daily.
I'm hoping that as time goes on, the job will become more comfortable? But I feel so much anxiety over the fact it has started so so negatively and at a time where my anxiety was manageable, it's suddenly made me want to lock my bedroom door and never leave :weep: I dunno whether to look for another job already? I feel like such a let down.
