Congrats!
And don't get caught on that "advocacy/racism" site when you're supposed to be working.
To think, you didn't even have to speak ebonics to get that job.
What type of work is it?

Thanks for the well wishes, and kind words, you guys. 

Let's just say it's wholesale.  The job is mainly working with excel spreadsheets, and managing the inventory.  It was my second day, where I learned to make invoices from sales orders, on Quickbooks, which I've never used before. I thought what I did checked out OK, but it turns out, I made a few errors, which the girl who is training said she would fix, since it was late in the day.  She didn't tell me what they were until I asked her after she finished.  She told me I somehow deleted a product description, and put in the wrong quantity for another style.  Tomorrow, I have to enter the shipment on another website.  The girl training me said to do it first thing in the morning, and to please be careful.

Anyway, the guys hiring me said it would be for a 2 week trial.  So now I'm feeling kind of nervous.

Almost all companies have some sort of trial period for new people so don't be so concerned over that... Most companies expect people to need a few days to become adjusted to the way they want things done...

Lisa you will be fine, just tomorrow remember to check over your work after you're done before you submit it so you can fix up any mistakes you might have made.  Those kind of mistakes are bound to creep up whenever typing or using a program like that, no matter who is doing it.   Don't worry, just try your best, they would be stupid not to keep you.
