Getting that first meeting can be difficult. I have an assistant who helps me and sometimes I can't even walk in the door and take my coat off before she's rapid firing questions and information at me. It's not a great way to start the day. I would take the suggestion for that FIRST meeting to follow your boss into his/her office and start the meeting off by telling them that this is not the way he/she can expect everyday to be but that you need to get some ground work and running orders in place. Then set up a time with them that you can meet each day, preferabbly 15 minutes or so after they get in the door.
