As you may have noticed, I haven't posted in a while. I feel like I'm going through a rough patch with myself. I don't like posting things on the Internet that are negative.
Almost 2 months ago I was let go of my job as a Sales Admin Assistant. I was on a probation, but I know that I worked really hard at the job, helped out the team as best as I could and followed the rules. I wasn't doing anything against policy procedure. I tried to stay positive and kept on thinking that everything is going to work out. However, the job was stressful and I wasn't completely happy there.
Finally, the day came, and I was told that I needed to go. Yes, I was sad and scared. This was a job I wanted for a long time. I wasn't going to earn a wage anymore especially since I planned on moving out of my parents. The place I worked at was well known and people would get excited when I told them where I worked.
But I felt a sense of relief. I was taking a break from all the stress I endured in the past 10 months. My anxiety level came down a lot and I had more free time to figure out what I really wanted to do in life. Plus, I am using less gas and I get to sleep in.
Although not needing to go into work has it's upsides, I will feel down at times that I don't have a job. I am a college graduate, living with my parents and jobless. I see my friends having jobs, they travel the world, and I get jealous. Dealing with the unemployment insurance isn't as easy as I thought and sometimes the topic of conversation in small talk turns into me looking for a job.
But I do have to remember that I do have a roof over my head, food to eat, a great boyfriend, great family, and wonderful friends. I know my life can be worse. And I live in a great place right now. When I am down, I have a great support system.
So, I'm trying to stay positive and know that things will work out. God has a plan for me.
