For my PhD, set up my email account! Very boring but also very vital for getting things done.

Panicked! Felt nervous! Would I be up to the job? What was I letting myself in for? Had I made the right choices?
So many questions but, hey, all turned out fine in the end. A few nerves are normal and probably a good sign because then I knew it was important to me!

First I sorted out my office computer, email, and admin privileges. Then I made my desk look really nice! I think it was important to finish all the little things that I wouldn’t have time to do now back then so that I have a more positive experience overall.

Lot of IT and admin stuff to set up on my first day, but all the teams I’ve worked with so far in my career have been so friendly and welcoming when I’ve started that it has made my first day at any new job go really smoothly.

Moved. I was living in Ireland at time and my job was in England. So I had to pack up some stuff and find somewhere new to live close to work.

The first thing I did when I found out I’d got the job was phone my parents! I then told anyone who would listen – friends, university lecturers – I was so happy!
On my first day in the office I sorted out my computer and security pass (as that can be a hassle!) then set to work out on site, inspecting a basement room that no one had visited in over ten years.
