Hey guys, don't know if you've noticed I've been in and out alot more lately than I normally am, but I thought I'd just share something I'm dealing with that is really quite stupid, but still, I'm dealing with it.
Some of you probably remember how much I disliked my job when I first joined MC. I was a youth minister and had very little experience in the area and found it to be very frustrating. Then they decided to cut my job to part time. After a long, long search, I found the job I'm at now. It seemed so great and exactly what I was looking for....for about the first six months.
Now I've been there just over a year and I'm in a place where I really feel like I need to get out again. I am really feeling like I'm wasting my time where I'm at because I sit and do nothing all day long. I get no support from my supervisor and chances of promotion are slim to none. So, I took matters into my own hands and applied for a position within my company at a different location that I just knew I would love, it relates to libraries and it just sounded so great (I once worked in a library part time but that's another story).
The rejection letter came on Thursday.
So, I'm stuck. I think I need to look outside my company, but I don't want to be the person who switches jobs every two years or so. I know that every job has some good and some bad, but right now my job is all the bad. And once again I'm also in a place where my position may be cut or elimnated. It's still going to be a little while before that happens, but it's highly likely that they're going to close my building, so therefore, they won't need me (I'm basically a receptionist).
I have been rather down as a result of all of this, so that is why I've been a little more sporadic in my posting. I just wanted you guys to know because you're like my family.
I'll keep you posted, I plan to start applying for other jobs and seeing what happens. Hopefully history won't repeat itself.
Love you all!
