So I got a job as a legal secretary

I can't believe it. In all of my wildest dreams and hope and careers and plans I never ever thought I would be saying that I got into a law firm. It might be small but they actually accepted me for the job. I will be getting paid and compared to a lot of other people and what I would have taken it's not bad at all. But I still can't believe it.

I start tomorrow and right now I am scared and nervous. I really want to do a good job and show them that I am a competent person. I am scared. It's like on the CV's you over sell yourself and when you actually get the job you have to show and prove. I just have to be confident. Fake it until I make it. One thing I usually fail at is if I am tired or unhappy it shows on my face. So I need have a poker face and smile. I need to interact with them and get to know them.

The thing is accounting I know a lot and I know the jargon in accounting but law. I know practically nothing but basic knowledge that everyone knows. So if I want to do a good job I will need learn at least the basics.

If I can survive the first month I know that I will get used to it and I will know my way around everything. Also, I will be able to carry on. I still can't believe it. This is definitely God's work. Something already written.
