T minus 12 days until the grand opening. The last we heard, there is NOT going to be a general manager. That puts me at the helm, something I wasn't really anticipating so soon. Part of me feels flattered that they would even consider me. Heck, I've only been with the company for a mere two months. But at the same time, I'm pretty terrified. I don't feel as though I'm ready yet, something that we actually discussed today. I was pretty excited about coming up as an assistant manager, and learn everything/anything from a new GM. Now that there is no GM to learn from, I feel as though I'm being tossed into the fire. No better way to learn then, right?
Orientation is this Friday, and the training begins this Saturday. After that, my social life will vanish completely for a few months, until we get the place up and running. It was nice knowing all of you. See you on the other side.

I went through the same when I was 21. After a mere 6 hours of training, the overnight shift called in sick. They looked at me and I volunteered to cover the shift. Mistakes were made, but the building was still standing in the morning. The key is not to repeat the same mistakes over and over again, and you will still be standing every morning.
