It's your first day in audit!!!! You don't know how to feel. Little do you know that your life is about to change forever. The memories of the board exams you wrote a few days ago has been surpassed by the excitement of meeting new people and the shinning new cloth you are wearing to impress people. You wonder of the possibility of a new career, a new adventure, a whirlwind that could take you anywhere, the fear of the unknown is more exciting than the reality of your career prospects.

Your first day in an audit firm is usually mixed with emotions, you generally will meet a lot of friends from university ( albeit you would have hardly seen them in a formal attire).

You introduce yourself to everyone with a smile in the hope that lasting friendships will be formed. You are nervous but at the same time excited. You are shy but at the same time confident. You are clueless but at the same time hopeful. You are bored but at the same time excited. Mixed emotions are the order of the day.

You would meet young dynamic people with similar emotions as you ( although disguised). You would see things you have never seen before. You would do things you have never done before. It is all a mystery but yet fascinating.

You first day in an audit firm will be the beginning of major events to happen, it is the beginning of many funny stories that you will later tell your kids, it is the first day of the rest of your life.

You will probably attend training or some sort of introductory celebration where you will meet all partners and new joiners. You will be privileged to access free food as well as wear a big fancy tag with your name and surname in bold. You will have been paid your first salary, this salary would have been used to buy the fancy attire that you are wearing. You will be told various cliched quotes referring to how "You should make the best of every second" and that " Hard work is essential" as well as how "If you fail to plan, you plan to fail"

You finish the day with a well fed tummy and well fed lies. Everything you have been told will not compare to what you are about to experience. Your life has just begun and you have no idea what you are getting yourself into.....
