I am finishing classes in May. I will have my bachelor's of science in family and consumer science. I was a waitress and cook since I was fifteen until I went to college at 28. My problem is that I still have a waitress personality ( I can be a little flirty, foul language doesn't phase me, I do use foul language sometimes, etc...) I just feel uncomfortable sometimes when I have to "act" professionally. Will that discomfort ever go away? I don't act like a potty mouthed wh*re or anything, but to be myself, I like to laugh at a dirty joke every once in a while, I like to tell an off color joke sometimes. I am worried that I will not fit in when I finally get the job that I have been working so hard toward for the last 5 years.

Any advice?

When you go to that first job, maintain a low profile for a week or so until you get a sense of the culture around you. You'll be surprised how easily you'll fit in just by listening more than speaking. This ole redneck worked at a university for 23 years and over time I started speaking and acting more and more like "city-fied" university people. My family still think I talk like a yankee.

Thanks for the advice. I also plan to work for a university (hopefully), so that is encouraging.

I worked at a bank where there a was a young girl who did an awesome job but cursed like a sailor and loudly. I think mgmt told her at one point to tone it down, because it stopped.

I hear what your saying, I dislike being professional all the time. Unfortunately, when you first start a job you don't know the culture. However, as you get to know who is who, you also learn if you can be yourself around them. There are groups of people where I work that think nothing of me swearing. It usually comes down to how well you know your co-workers. It's kind of easy to learn that once your on the job for a month or so.

Even within the "be yourself" groups here, there is one golden rule. When the customer is around, behave! The customer only sees the professional front that we display to them.

We hired one of our customers and she informed us that we really do have everyone fooled. She had no idea we were so much fun until she started working with us.

Never accept a job where you can't be yourself, at least some of the time! I work in a professional job where what I say and do can not only get me fired, but could also land me with fines, ethical violations, and revocation of my license. However, i swear, have a very liberal attitude and sometimes risque sense of humor. I'm always myself - love to laugh, joke, and minimize the stress of everyday life. But like others said, beware of your audience, learn your allies, respect your "foes." Self-teach yourself about personality and communication styles. You'll never regret learning this information for your professional and personal lives! I expect you'll be just fine. You made it through 5 years of college and I'm pretty sure you didn't "coyote ugly" at school!

The important thing is knowing when to be professional. I work in an ER and behind the scenes, I've never know a rowdier bunch. But we're all professionals with the patients and visitors.

Like the saying goes, "Work hard, play hard".

Like rof said. Lay low until you get a feel for the culture of your workplace.

If you can't be yourself, it might be time for a change.

Wow! I'm really impressed that you're thinking about this because so many people don't. How you present yourself in a professional environment can either expand your opportunities or limit your career. I agree with those who have suggested finding a position that will be a good fit with your personality & taking time to observe the culture around you for the first week. That's really sound advise. I would add a few other suggestions:

1) Avoid gossip, negative comments and discussions about your personal life.
2) Invest in a book about proffesional communication.
3) When given a task which falls outside the scope of your job description, or one you consider undesirable, try to view it as a great opportunity to learn and grow within your profession.
4) Be careful who you align yourself with. The company you keep does reflect on you and can limit your career.

One final thought...You're likely to go into a company at a lower level than you're ultimately capable of. Pay attention to how the people in the position you want dress and behave. By emulating the best of their dress and behavior, you will make it easy for upper management to see you fitting in with that group.

I hope my suggestions help. Congrats on your degree!! I know it's difficult to go back to school as an adult & can be a bit intimidating heading in a new direction professionally. I've been there, done that. Now I'm a Project Engineer. If I can do it, so can you. Best of luck to you.
