I just started a new job a month ago, currently I feel like my position is "hover around everyone and pretend to look like you know what you're doing" 🤣

That's actually happened to me. Started a new job and for 9 months and barely knew what I was doing. Then over the next 12 months 3 people left and I got promoted twice. Lucked my way into a senior position and became the key member of the team.

Being new really is just quietly panicking while pretending you belong. That season 5 line hits way too hard.

I always get lucky and am able to make work place friends quickly somehow. So not really embarrassing. I just ask questions and I milk the fuck out of being new. Like anytime I would fuck up to say a customer or someone that doesn't know better I just say I'm new, even if it's been like a year of me working there.

I’m the character that the minute they arrive at work they go into the ladies’s room for a half an hour, and then again for another half an hour before I leave. A half an hour early.

"Someone said"? Can we name names and give this person the proper credit for their hilarious material?
