Work

Well, I'm going into the third week of unemployment, and I haven't found a job yet. My only fear is being denied my benefits (still waiting on an answer). I'm debating if I should just continue looking for a job here or get a temp/summer job in Houston and be close to my sis. I love my sis, but I don't know if I could stay with her for that long. I would have to get a place either way because if the kids want to come with me, we will need a place of our own.

This is the last time I will mention my old job, and then I will be closing this chapter.

Every now and then I keep replaying my last day at work, and what I could have done to change it. I keep thinking that I should have spoken up and asked for an explanation, but I know that would not have done any good. I keep thinking that I should have been prepared for what was coming (the good thing is that when I got my first and ONLY verbal warning I cleared out my office preparing for the worst) and keep blaming myself for not being prepared or for not fighting hard enough. But, I keep telling myself that it was unavoidable, and there is nothing else I could have done to change their minds. I did try, I really did. But, it wasn't good enough. This is their loss, and I was not getting anything out of this anymore. I felt like I was going backward instead of forward! I regret not getting out of there sooner, but I guess we must wait for the right time. Last year was hell, and I thought it would get better with the new management. I was wrong. Well, all I can say is that some things happen for a reason, and maybe life has a better thing in store for us! And we must learn from our failures. That place is worse than this town itself.
Ok! Let's move on!!! Bye bye!
