Being a traveler can be stressful at times. You don’t know anyone. You don’t know how each facility does certain things. You are the “new person.” You need to prove yourself. How can you make yourself feel more comfortable in the first couple of weeks? The best way is to find that one person and have them show you the “ropes”.
How nice would it be to have someone who knows a lot about the facility and to answer questions for you? It would make you feel more comfortable with your situation, more confident in your skills, and it shows you are willing to go out there and open up in meeting people. This person can give you tips in the whole process. Being able to talk with someone about struggles or successes goes a long way. Look at this person as your mentor. In finding a mentor will definitely make the transition in a new environment more efficient and comfortable. So on your first day make sure to smile, interact, and try to find someone who you can depend on.
