Tips for a fresh grad starting my first 'real' job?

Asked by artificialard (2273points) June 4th, 2009

I’m pretty much finished my bachlors degree and was lucky enough to find my first real ‘full-time job’ doing working on internet projects for a small but reputable marketing/PR firm.

I’ve actually been working for a decade now, first at computer store then just as a freelance computer administrator. But that was all part-time and a lot less structured and very self-directed. i.e. I’m one of those Gen Y slackers that gets up at 3PM and has a burrito for breakfast reads some blog, and calls it a day.

I’m excited but a little nervous about this new ‘adult’ job so I’d appreciate any tips, advice, and stories as a really enjoy those stuff I wish I knew when I was 21 kind of questions and would like the same kinda input about the work-life-post-college transition.
