- The first day of a job is mostly paperwork and names.
- You will forget nearly all of the names by lunch.
- Everyone tells you not to worry, which does not help much.
- The second day is worse, because the welcome is over.
- You are given real work and no clear idea of the order.
- Asking questions early costs less than fixing mistakes later.
- Most people are happy to explain their own part twice.
- They are less happy to explain it a fifth time.
- Write things down, even the details that seem obvious now.
- In week three the meetings begin to make sense.
- You start hearing the same three problems in different rooms.
- Those problems are usually the reason the job exists.
