I know y'all have been eagerly anticipating my job's fate over the past week, as have Jeremy and I. We received word on Friday afternoon that the selections had been made, those folks had been notified and escorted from the building.
I, fortunately, am still employed, though 2 good friends are not. One on my team with 25 years of service and another gal with, I think two years. It's hard to watch some one's livelihood fall apart as they pack their personal items and head out the door. It's even worse to find the right words. I hope they know that my prayers are with them and I'd do anything I can to help them.
Speaking of prayers, thank you, all of you for your thoughts and prayers while we were waiting to hear if I would lose my job. I don't think I've prayed as hard in quite some time myself.
My job responsibility is going to change immensely over the next few weeks as I pick up pieces from Dan's loss. I assume I will meet with my manager on Monday and find out the gory details of what will be added to my role. Posting here will be pretty light for a while as I sort through the transition. Please know that I'll be reading about all of you when I can and thinking of you too!
oh thank God. I'm so relieved to read this. My thoughts are with your co-workers. Like you said, there are no words....
ReplyDeleteI too, am relieved to know that you will still be able to work. Hopefully the added work will just flow right into your current responsibilities without much added stress. I will continue to pray everyday for those without jobs. It's a scary world we live in isn't it??
