**Have you considered that God doesn’t want you in this line of work? **
I’ve wondered about that.
But after 2-1/2 hellish years of unemployment and NO ANSWERS OR REPLIES
to my submitted very professional office worker resume, I took this job.
I was maniacal with terror after 2-1/2 years of unemployment, 51 years old,
and all - ALL - my money was gone.
I thanked GOD for this job, still do.
Believe me, if I could get a job paying me what, frankly with my experience,
I am worth, or anything remotely near it, I would take it in a heartbeat.
In the meantime, quitting is not an option. I am very poor right now, and
quitting would probably drive me to suicide, as would losing the job by firing
for not making my points.
As I said in a related post, I don’t understand, if God cares for me and forgives my sins,
why he doesn’t seem to be consistently helping me succeed on this job?
Most of my co-workers are unbelievers. They don’t pray for God’s help to have a good day. I DO. Yet they make their goals and exceed them (and I used to, this just started happening a couple of weeks ago). One woman I work with is so downright bullying, overbearing, hostile and malicious that one would think that God would discipline HER by making her fall short of her goal, but nope, she makes sometimes 600% of goal, and never less than nearly 300% of it ((largely by stealing customers WE have already been working with OR by saying merely “hello” to a customer as she comes in the door, and then claims that customer and his/her purchases as “her sale” even though she doesn’t help the customer for an hour or more while they shop for their stuff alone. She once went screaming to the boss because she had greeted a customer when he came in, then left him alone, so one of my co-workers served him and sold him a $1000 espresso machine. She was so livid that she went screaming to our department manager and he took HER side, and gave the $1000 sale to HER, helping her STEAL IT from the co-worker who actually did ALL the leg work. He takes HER SIDE because she gets customers to open lots of store credit card applications, which makes him look good)).
I don’t begrudge ANYBODY a good sales day and want EVERYONE of my co-workers to exceed their sales goals and make a nice check. But I need to make one, too, and I’m busting my tail, serving customers for hours, answering all their questions, etc., only to have them buy a spatula or a can opener, or decide to go to another store because our “coupons” exclude electrical items, etc. I am doing what I am SUPPOSED to be doing. Perhaps the LORD will be kind and answer my prayers for good sales tomorrow.
I need to make a living.
If he is not going to help me meet my financial obligations and needs, then I pray for him to put me to death, because I could never survive unemployment again and I have elderly parents who need my help. Unemployed, I am a burden on them, not a help.
Love,
