Summarize:

After the first day you are expected to remember what you've been repeatedly told. Anytime you have an issue, review your notebook first. Asking for directions only if necessary. This helps show you are capable of working independently. The sooner you can show this, the more respect you will earn from your co-workers. Continue to show up to work early, dressed appropriate, and ready to work. The first month people develop clear expectations about you. This will influence how they treat you as a co-worker. If you are late or make a business dress faux pas, take responsibility for your mistake. Traffic may have been bad, but you could have accounted for it. Making excuses for your temporary lack of etiquette show immaturity. Anything your boss or human resources department hands you to read over, do so promptly. Ask questions where you do not understand. Make notes of any rules you think will be difficult to remember or that you think you might break accidentally. For example, at most jobs, discussing pay is considered "unethical" and may be grounds for termination. Discussing politics and religion may also get you in trouble even if you do so off-the-clock. Many forms must be completed within the first week or month of employment. These include tax and health insurance enrollment forms such as a W-2. You may need to ask your human resources contact how to appropriately fill out these forms. Beyond just your boss and co-workers, you need to learn the names and relationships of people throughout the company. People who you will meet face-to-face and department heads are particularly important. If you are feeling overwhelmed learning people's names and positions, trying drawing a diagram of each department with the department head at the top and everyone under them below. As you learn people's positions, you can write them down and orient them vertically according to their role. It's a new job and there's a lot to learn, but don't let it intimidate you. Remember you earned that job due to your experience and let your workplace attitude display that confidence and experience. If you get frustrated or overwhelmed, take a deep breath and try again. Let your new bosses see that you work well in new situations and under pressure. No matter how many notes you write you will still mess up. When corrected, say "thank you" and look over your notes for errors. Do not blame another co-worker even if you believe their instructions were incomplete. Review your updated instructions with the person correcting you. Even if you brought your lunch, your lunch break is more than food. Its about being social with co-workers and bosses. Being invited to lunch signals interest. This gives you an opportunity to develop a deeper, better relationship with this person. Whether you are at lunch with a co-worker or at home posting on social media you shouldn't relax too much. Whenever work is involved, stay in a professional mindset. Subtle or abrupt changes to your level of professional courtesy may be construed as a lack of respect. You're a new employee, but you're part of a team. Ask questions and accept criticism with a smile.  When you've completed your assigned tasks, ask your manager or superior what you can be doing to help the team. Don't be afraid to ask questions if you're asked to participate in a team or group function.  Co-workers will be more likely to help you out and answer your questions if you establish yourself as a team player. Engage your new co-workers in conversation when they welcome you to the team, but stay neutral in your opinions about them. You're just as likely to get welcomed into the office fantasy football pool as you are to get targeted by the office gossip, so remain objective until you know whose welcome is genuine. Do not be quick to complain about your work even if asked what you do not like about the job so far. Focus on how you can improve your own job performance.
Review and expand your notes continuously. Demonstrate consistently appropriate work behavior. Read all employment information. Complete any forms promptly. Memorize people's names and relationships. Stay confident and relax. Accept lunch invitations if offered. Stay in business mode. Work as a team player.
