New Intern, Interaction With Co-Workers

So my group got a new intern today.  After my supervisor left, it left us a gaping hole in our manpower so I have been tasked to manage her.  Wat.  I guess this should be a test of my diplomatic and leadership skills though I really hope I don't fuck things up.  Interacting with her has been decent though I'm still on my tiptoes about it.  Hopefully, she won't have to rely on me that much.

Interactions with coworkers, including interns, have been increasingly better.  More and more managers and employees are starting to recognize and greet me, and even talk to me.  I converse the best I can and of course, put on a smile and such.  Still, every now and then my "mask" falls apart and I have to remind myself by standing in front of a mirror in the bathroom.  The hard work I put in the last couple of years might be starting to pay off.
