Prayers for lost job

[JLCecilia]

Please pray for my co-worker who was let go this morning after her 8th unscheduled absence in her first year here. Many times she has come to work and been very troubled having to leave her 10 or 12 yo at home by themselves while she’s at work 30 min away. Her husband’s job keeps him on the road and her mom works. I myself am 2 absences away from termination. I’m grateful to my boss when I was in this situation a couple years ago to convey to me that it might be best to find a back-up sitter. I don’t think my co-worker had the benefit of a manager really driving home to her the weight or status of her attendance.

This just drives home how restrictive our attendance policy is for employess with young families. Six absences in a rolling 12 mo period=written warning (where I am now), 7=final written warning, 8=termination. And, no, you aren’t permitted to make up your time.

Please also pray for the rest of our staff scrambling to fill in for our other agency 2 hrs away till they get a new hire trained. The next step will be to post the job for our agency and hire someone (LOTS of red tape). Not a good situation to be in when our hospital is already in the discrenment process for viability/partnership/buy-out.

Saint Michael, the archangel, defend us in battle, be our defense against the wickedness and snares of the devil, may God rebuke him, we humbly pray. And do you, O’ Prince of the Heavenly host, by the power of God thrust into Hell Satan and all the other evil spirits who prowl about the world for the ruin of souls.

Amen.

Our Father who art in Heaven, hallowed be thy name.

Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on Earth as it is in Heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread.

And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us.

And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.

Amen.

Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee.

Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb Jesus.

Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death.

Amen.

Prayer to St. Joseph for the Unemployed

O Saint Joseph, we pray to you for those who are out of work, for those who want to earn their living or support their families.

You who are the patron of workers; grant that unemployment may vanish from our ranks; that all those who are ready to work may put their strength and abilities in serving their fellowmen and earn a just salary.

You are the patron of families; do not let those who have children to support and raise lack the necessary means. Have pity on our brothers and sisters held down in unemployment and poverty because of sickness or social disorders. Help our political leaders and captains of industry find new and just solutions. May each and every one have the joy of contributing, according to his abilities, to the common prosperity by an honorable livelihood. Grant that we may all share together in the abundant goods God has given us and that we may help underprivileged countries. Amen.

 

[ready]

I just said a prayer for your intention. God bless you.

Amen.

Glory Be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.
As it was in the beginning is now ever shall be world without end
Amen.

Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to thy protection, implored thy help, or sought thy intercession, was left unaided.
Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto thee, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother. To thee do I come, before thee I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in thy mercy, hear and answer me. Amen
