I just got my A&P finished and in my pocket (waiting for my little green card), and am currently looking for jobs. For some reason, I'm very nervous about the fact that now I'll be working on "real" planes instead of just crappy unairworthy planes at a school. I'm kinda freaked that it's real now and I have to be on my A game 100%....did anyone else get this feeling on their first job? The realization that it's "game time"
 
I get that feeling every time I do a big job.

When i don't I'm hanging it up, for me the nerves keep me sharp.
 
It's a shame that we were left with those abused and incomplete aircraft in A&P school. Myself and everybody I have started were under the supervision of a more experienced mechanic in the beginning. You will get into the job very easily and feel confident about your job. Just have a good time.
