Pet Peeve... People in Charge, not caring enough to get to know their empoyees.

I know it has been a while since I blogged last. I apologize for the slack. I blame it on my Professional Writing class… Ms. Withrow had us blog for our end of the year project. This is my final week shaping and creating that blog.

Anyways…

Last night as I was working my second job, the general manager comes up to me in front of bar people and employees, to tell me that he is letting me go. (I will say it got me some nice tips at then end of the night) He followed it with, I know you have a full time job and I have to worry about the girls who don’t.

I was blind sided. I only work twice a week… it is not like I hog all the great shifts. Plus, this was not just a job to support my addiction of shoes. It was a job to save for the future; to guarantee that I have a nice cushion to finish school. Unfortunately, I do not sleep or flirt with the Gen. Manager sooooo he could give two craps about me and my situation.

Life has always been a struggle for me. I do right (as best I can)… but it always seems there is a dark cloud that follows me and occasionally rains on my parade.

I was talking to Jake last night at midnight about my turn of events… and he quoted what he learned from his yearly visit to church this past Easter Sunday. He reminded me of the Story of Job… and how he lost everything, yet God was with him. Even though Jake was partially trying to make me laugh, it worked… and got me to calm down.

So as Marquis just said in a text: “time for plan d”.

I know life will work out. I have a gazillion (more the a trillion) skills in my back pocket. One of which is a realtor’s license.

Thanks for letting me whine a bit. I will get over it.
