I'm starting my new job in a few weeks and I am TERRIFIED! Any advice?

I'm starting a job in a few weeks, my second one ever, and I am TERRIFIED! I'm mostly scared because I'm in introvert and people scare me and make me nervous, but also because I'm only 18 and my job has people over the age of 40. I feel like I'm going to be seen as a child! I. am. TERRIFIED! Someone help me get over this fear and help me feel better about this please!!!

If you are really that terrified - you should probably get some professional help on how to deal w/the anxiety. Your too young to be afraid of anything! You should be fearless! If that is not an option - face your fear. NOONE is better or smarter than anyone else....dress appropriately, stand tall, breath and go in there to do the job your paid to do. Watch out for traps, avoid creeps, etc...just function! And #1 - don't worry about what other people think! Be Here Now as the saying goes! Good luck! Kill it! :)
