Re: I was hired

I am very excited for you! It is very hard when you first move out, and I can really relate to your homesickness. It doesn't seem like its going to get better right now, but I promise you, it will! I think your Dad is right, you need to give it some time to really be sure.

Best of luck to you, and I look forward to hearing all about your new job! :)

Re: I was hired

It sucks to be homesick, but think of it this way. If you were away at collage or in the service, you could be much farther from home. At least at DL you can call your family when you need to, and DL has got to be a whole lot more fun. Take one day at a time and make the most of it. If it doesn't work out, you can always say you gave it a try. Just one more experience to adulthood.
Good luck.

Re: I was hired

Congratulations on the new job! Like everyone else has said, give it some time. Homesickness does fade with time and getting involved is the best cure! Tomorrow you'll meet all sorts of new people who are excited, and yes scared, to be starting a new job too. Being in the same boat makes for fast friendships! Good luck and hang in there!

Enjoy your first day of work! You never know who you might meet! A friend for a lifetime could greet you with a smile on your first day. You never know.

Congrats. Good luck on your first day. Homesickness is always hard. It won't be that bad after you meet some people.

Re: I was hired

Congrats Tim!!

I am sorry to hear that you're feeling so "bleh". I hope that things get better for you...I loved working at DL but couldn't get over a lot of the financial stress, so I'm hoping that things work out much better for you!

Congrats again, and let us know where you'll be working in Tomorrowland!

Good luck!
I agree 100%!! When I first left for college I felt like that too..but once I got involved and met people I never wanted to go back!
Congrats!! At least this way you wont have any regrets because you'll get to work at your favorite place!

Re: I was hired

aww Tim, it's always hard to move away from all the familiar things. You'll be so busy at DL, you'll be fine soon.
Congratulations on getting the job that quickly. Try and enjoy it. What a great experience for you

Re: I was hired

CONGRATS Tim! I hope you love your job and will soon be over your "bleh" feelings. I'm just repeating what your Dad and others have already said. Give it time. I do hope it all works out for you though. I look forward to hearing your continuing saga.
