I start my new job tomorrow. I am more excited than anything but still a little nervous.

I worked at a place for 16 years - started there almost right out of high school. I spend the last 10 years or so working in our public warehouse. Our biggest customer left just about a year ago. Benifits at our company were slipping, not to mention the 45 minute drive every day. So oppertunity came knocking - and I answered. I am going to work for that customer that left the warehouse :)

I have a huge advantage. I know almost all the people that work there, I know many of their customers from when they had product at our warehouse, and I have some experience with their product. I am super excited.

The only negative is coming from working in a warehouse, I wore work shoes, jeans, and what ever type of shirt I wanted. The new place is Business Casual. So although I know they stress the casual part - no jeans.

Wish me luck! I start tomorrow :)
