    I need a lot of prayer, please..

    I know I haven't been posting very much lately but a lot of things have been going on in my life lately. I'm working hard at school - which I love - but it's really difficult to keep it up and also keep the job that I have right now. It is my job that is the reason I'm asking for prayer. I absolutely hate my job. My boss is a real hag and she's been saying things about me behind my back to other employees. Unfortunatly, I have to have work, and I've yet to find anything else. But - this job has made me so sick; I'm getting migraines, I'm not sleeping, not eating, and it feels like I'm getting gastritis again (inflammation of the stomach lining, in case anyone doesn't know what that is), plus my diabetes is totally out of control. I lay awake at night dreading going to work, tears streaming down my face.. and I make myself so sick about it I can't even go to work the next day and I have to call in sick but in total fear that I'm going to get fired. I want to quit so badly but I can't afford to without something else to go to. I've applied to a couple of places, but the time of day that my school is scheduled makes finding work extremely difficult.

    I'm asking that you please pray that I can find another job before my health fails even more. I need to leave that place so badly, I know this in my heart and I just need to find something else to go to. I'm asking if you could all send a prayer, asking for that help for me? I'm so depressed and worked up over all this I'm barely functioning day-to-day.

    PT Prayers always seem to work, so please say one for me. I would really appreciate it.

    Thanks.

    Oh, Nomilynn I wish things were better for you. You have my heartfelt prayers that the right situation/job comes soon.

    Please take care of yourself. I understand hating your job and staying for the money - I'm doing it, but find an outlet for the stress if you can. Come here as often as you can or pm anyone of us to talk.

    Oh Nom, I'm so so sorry

    It is just awful what you are going through. I know you need the money, but your health is important. It's such an awful situation.

    I hope you can find something else soon, and take care of yourself. Please pm or im me if you ever need to "talk." I worked for 4 years for a horrible awful boss, and it took all I had each day to drag myself to work. I made myself sick as well, and I wasn't a very nice person to be around. My boss said horrible things about me as well, but I can't write them here, this is a family site.

    You'll be in my prayers Naomi.

    Nom, I’m so sorry you’re having to go through this. I’m a firm believer that whatever trial and tribulations we face only make us stronger. I know you’ll come out on the other side of this a stronger woman.

    There is nothing as stressful as hating your job.

    Take care of yourself and know that I’m thinking of you.

    More prayers coming from me Nomi. I'm free this weekend if you want to get together. PM me, OK?

    Oh Naomi,

    You shouldn't have to go through that. Is there an EAP program where you work? It's Employee Assistance Program. It's completely confidential where you can talk to someone about what's going on.

    The reason I'm telling you this is I've been in your situation. I was going through a real tough time trying to work as a paralegal 40 + hours a week and take care of my alcoholic Dad and was getting alot of flack at work. I almost wound up in the hospital from a nervous breakdown. I was working for this whack job female lawyer who didn't know her a$$ from her elbow. She was making tons of mistakes and then blaming them on me . Fortunately I was wise enough to copy everything she did wrong and documented all conversations. She'd tell me do to something and then turn around and say she didn't tell me to do it. Someone put a "personal and confidential" memo under a pile of files on my desk that was about me and my performance addressed to all the partners. I was furious!!! I immediately took all the documentation and the memo I had and went to the EAP rep. All hell broke loose because they knew I had a case and could cause real problems for the company if it ever got out. They offered to put me to work with 2 other lawyers. I told them that after that memo, NO ONE would want to work with me. I got a nice little settlement that allowed me to take my time finding another job.

    You KNOW you've got my thoughts and prayers, Nom. Don't let them get you down. Document EVERYTHING. And look into EAP. That's what they are there for.

    (((hugs)))

    Naomi (((((Hugs}}}}} across the miles sweetheart.
    No wonder you're feeling stressed - this job sounds like it's making you ill - well not the job - bujy your boss, you knew what I meant didn't you?

    If your diabetes is sliding out of control - thats got to be because your not eating - right? Please, please try and eat as hard as it is. You don't want to kick start your gastritis either.

    I'm saying lots and lots of prayers - espelcially to St. Jude (patron saint of lost causes) as your convinced you won't get a job!! Lets see if we can prove you wrong.
