Definitely trying to make a point to do this more. Thanks for the tip.

Ask questions. No such thing as a stupid question, and always better to ask up front than pretend you know what’s going on.

It really helps ease the transition and helps you feel more confident as you go along.

Also, take copious notes that you can refer back to. Whenever I start a new job, I start a new catch-all doc for agency and client quirks and processes, and that’s where I notate answers to refer to in future situations.

Definitely going to do this. Thanks for the advice!

Last time that happened I got fired. But then I got a better job for more money. And also I was happy getting fired because a shit job can really ruin your week.

So I wouldn't worry too much.

I’m coming up empty on ideas for them to bridge the gap, but I’m also new to my compliance counsel role, so I would be overjoyed if anyone has suggestions.
