Moving Again
Yeah, so my department is moving again today. This will the third that they have moved since last July. It is just so crazy and insanely inefficient. But then again they wanted to consolidate the floors that Ipsos uses at this building and they wanted to renovate the floors before they had all the departments move to their final location.
In a way though I am very glad to be moving. My boss came in yesterday and before I left for home he told me he wanted to talk to me about my job/position and the fact that it no longer exsisted in their budget. Aka, my position been eliminated from the budget for this year, and so as I was driving home yesterday (Thursday), I kept thinking about how Friday (today) maybe my last day working for this company. It wouldn't be the first time that I had less than 24 hour notice that I would no longer be workering at a particular company.
So yeah, suffice it to say I was really freaking out last night. One, I was affraid of what we would do for mone. And two, I was affraid that I may have a repeat of last summer, being distant with God. And that really freaked me out. I realized last summer that if I am not being productive in some manner or if I am really worried about money (last summer, it happened to be both) I start to have trouble in my walk.
But this did not come to pass. For the time being at least I will continue to be a temp at this company. However, it teach me something. One, I need to have my resume ready at all times. Two and more importantly, I need to remember that what God has given me, HE can just as easily take away from me. After last summer, I am grateful for both the money and work that God has given me, but I know that I still take advantage of it.
THANK YOU GOD!!!, for always providing for me and my wife.

I don't want to freak you out; but I saw you editing and googled.
When I started this job, I'd just spent a few months at Citibank, after a four-year stint at The Olive Garden. The stability, the quality of the management, the spirit of the place, all made me feel like I'd just won something. And I had: I can honestly say I'm a better person for the last 5 years here.
To wit: I don't care about where I work. As long as I'm making enough money, and not whoring myself out for it, it's all good.
For what it's worth, I've tried to sell management on your worth here. I've mentioned how quickly you caught on, how you've brought a unique fiscal head to the work. If they're not going to follow the strengths of the people they have, then it's almost a moral imperative to leave and let them deal with the loss.
Oh, and I'm not telling anyone about the blog. If you want 'em to know (or they're a little clever and google), that's out of my hands.
