  1. Hey everyone,I am new (obviously) and am having some issues with my new job. I've been there now for a month and a half. Been doing very well with the customers, processing orders, shipping and questions.My downfall is ordering product and communicating effectively with the owner.The communication is completely out of character for me, it was at first little things like not sending him an email right away or something of the similar. This time it turn really bad. Previously, I was working the "new person" bumps out and paving the way to being an excellent employee.i ordered product that i thought we needed right away... He doesn't like orders being held for shipments.He asked me to get the pricing, and said he is sure i can make a good call.So from that I thought that was the OK.This was weds.I made the order.Then on Friday he comes in the office and the last thing he said to me was wait another week or two to order this.I was already flustered because I had misplaced a piece of paper (that turned out I shredded it which is good) and for a moment I thought I didn't order the product.The Friday I came home and realized I did order it, and I was totally screwed.I emailed him today and told him. I should have told him i think i ordered it weds, but I didn't, wasn't thinking, was acting out of fear and now I look 10 times worse.I just want to be perfect at my job, and its back firing...This is making me wonder if I am what he is looking for. My last job for the first 6 months was terrible, but after that I turned out to be one of the best employees the company had. I love this new job so much, but at the same time my anxiety level is super high and I am worried about failing myself, the owner, and his company. Maybe this is just the fear talking, maybe I am not cut out to run a business by myself. I just don't know, and these questions are frustrating to me because that is just it, I don't know. In that I don't want to fail.If anyone can share advice, past stories, or anything I would surely appreciate all of the attention.Thank you.
