The new Levski Sofia coach had a really crappy first day at work.

The first day at a new job is always stressful. There's nothing worse than fumbling around an unfamiliar office looking for supplies, having to have lunch with people you don't know, and being left out of the newest office gossip.

The one thing you usually don't count on for your first day is to be attacked and stripped partially nude when you're introduced to everyone. Welcome to the first day of Ivaylo Petev's first day as the new coach for Levski Sofia. The fun starts about the :45 mark.



What could Ivaylo have possibly done to upset his new team's fans before he ever even coached a game? Supporting the enemy it seems. Story via Reuters
Levski, the 26-times Bulgarian champions, turned to Petev after sacking Serbian coach Slavisa Jokanovic following a mediocre start to the season but the Sofia-based club’s fans believe his allegiance lies with CSKA.

“I have no sympathy to another Sofia club, you can check it out,” said Petev.

In an interview with local media in June, however, the 38-year-old, who led Ludogorets to two consecutive league titles, said he was a CSKA fan, adding that this had never stopped him being uncompromising against his favourite team on the pitch.
 I guess feeling awkward at the water-cooler doesn't seem like such a big deal now.
