Please think/pray for me. I don't know if I can handle this job transition so quickly. I barely have a grasp on what I'm supposed to be doing on top of trying to finish up the cycle presentation that was already due last week plus move all my personal files and .pst files over and clean out my desk. Oh and let's not forget that both of my bosses are gone for the next two weeks.

I'm so frustrated with myself that I don't remember everything I was told in my two days of training and that I don't understand the new tasks I will be doing? For example - I have the mail key, guess who already forgot that's a new part of my job?

I don't know if I should scream or cry. I'm having a hard time dealing with this.

What was I thinking?

*Update*
I'm doing better right now after a good lunch break... :)

   Hey Mishu!
   
   You can do this! It's not your fault the timing is wrong. It's difficult to remember everything about a new job under the best of circumstances let alone doing two jobs and knowing that you're on your own for 2 weeks. I know that you want to handle it all and you're taking on all this so that your bosses will think you're competent and responsible for this new job but don't be afraid to talk to your bosses. They'd rather you admit that things are difficult right now and work to make it better then having you have a break-down. Let me know if there's any way I can help you... I have no doubt that you'll get through this and do a fantastic job in your new role.

   You can do it, Michelle. Just give yourself a little time. Doing two jobs instead of one is overwhelming. But I am sure after the Christmas rush is over things will fall into place. It's just a busy time of year. God is watching over you. Just take it to him in prayer and read his word to guide you through this time of transition.
