def get_index_except_first(list_of_items):
    """Return the index of a list except for the first item."""
    return list_of_items.index(list_of_items[1])

# Enter the list
list_of_items = ["a", "b", "c", "d", "e"]

# Calling the function
index = get_index_except_first(list_of_items)

# Printing the index
