Sometimes that&rsquo;s true. Sometimes you already know the work, and the hard part is noticing what&rsquo;s actually new.</p> <p>I moved countries inside the same company. The office was different. The hours were different. The way people said good morning was different. The learning curve on the job wasn&rsquo;t. I was on the same tools, with the same teams. A lot of the users in the new country were people I had already supported, or worked alongside, while I was still in the country I had just left. The first week felt natural. I wasn&rsquo;t learning the estate. I was learning the room.</p>
