i always like being the new person at work. perfect excuse for why something isnt perfect! "oops sorry! i am new here!"

i am older working in a new industry to me, people on other departments expect i know more about the job, wished they had lower expectation

I like to say ""Sorry, it's my first day!" when I screw up at something that should be easy for me as a seasoned employee
