New job tomorrow and I'm very nervous

Has anyone got any tips or tricks for it not ruining my Sunday and getting good sleep.
Why am I so nervous, I need this job so badly to pay bills and I honestly haven't got time for drama or politics.
I don't even want to make friends as it's a 24 month contract, so I just need to be of a satisfactory level.

Honestly you'll be fine. Work out your route to work and what time you need to leave (with time to spare so you're not stressed). Take a notebook and pen. Tomorrow will just be admin and HR stuff. As long as you turn up on time, smile and show willing you can't go wrong. Good luck!

Thank you, yes that is true, lots of policy and admin work.
Thank you for your reassuring comment

Normal to be nervous

Go in with a smile, keep friendly but don’t be “over friendly” or “over share”. Let things take time.

Remember they chose you over others. They believed in you. Believe in yourself.

Good luck

Notepad, pens, positive attitude, listen & accept you won’t remember everyone’s name. Also start thinking about passwords 😀!!

Thank you for the response
I keep thinking I've had many first days before
The first week will be tiresome and I won't remember everything but I appreciate your help
