And it beings
I just got back from FL where we crammed more meetings, briefings and visits into my bosses schedule than I thought was possible. When it came down to his 1 hour open block in his schedule, we had 3 people we tried to jam in at once.
The good news for me is I have a better picture for how I will be able to support him in his job. Basically, I will need to learn and manage a little of everything from traveling and scheduling to protocol. I have almost no expierence in doing this, basically only what I've done for the boss so far, but I will have my bosses bosses staff to hopefully learn from.
I am so excited for this job. The hours will be long, the work will be new to me and that is the part I am nervous about. I have already made mistakes, and I'm afraid of making more because my mistakes are evident as inconvienencesto my boss.
So, I'm about 80% in the job, the second we leave I'm in all the way.
I'm also realizing more and more how much I am going to miss my life here.

You'll do fine JO. Your boss picked you because he saw that you are squared away. Mistakes are expected from new people.....repeated mistakes are not. There is always a learning curve when you start a new job, and I am confident that you will do your job better than anyone else before you has done. Why do I say that? Because I know you...you always do things with excellence. (It shows...even in your civilian life-which is the only side of you that I have been able to observe) That is what separates you from the rest of the crowd, and that is why you got picked for your new job. Keep up the good work, and don't fret the little stuff. :)
