8 Problems With Being The New Person In The Office

3. Your Phone Is Ringing!

There's bound to be a generic phone on your desk. You hear other people's ringing and being answered but you've had a lucky escape so far. But what happens when your phone does ring? Who could possible want to speak to you? You're new - you don't know anything yet. They could have the wrong number and ask to be transferred. Which you obviously have no clue about because you don't know anyone's name or extension number. And what if they ask you for actual important information and you just don't have any of the right answers. It could be your boss - and if you don't answer they'll think you're not at your desk. Your phone ringing is the worst nightmare of a new office worker.
