I found out today that I wasn’t the first choice at my new job and got offered it only after someone else declined their offer. I feel inadequate. Not the ones my peers wanted, not who the boss did. Every mistake I make now I’m just thinking I’m a burden

You’re not inadequate, it’s like getting second place in a race: you may not be first, but you still had the skill to get there regardless

I supposed. I just know they my co workers had stated they really wanted this new hire (we’re hiring someone new right now) to have more experience so it wouldn’t involve so much teaching and they would know what they’re doing.
