I start a new job on Monday after 9 years as an accountant

After 14 months I accepted a job as an accountant. It has been a long 20 weeks. It is not my dream role, but the pay is fair and the people are kind. What helped you in the first month?

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it last year, and it settled down once I kept a simple log of every call and form.
