Thoughts on losing my Job.
We found out September 30, 2010 that our company was shutting there health division down due to health care reform. At that time we had no clue when we would be losing our jobs, we found out a month later that most of the Springfield office would be losing there jobs 2nd quarter of 2012. They decided that Springfield would be the last office shut down, because we were the cheapest to run. So I feel blessed I have a job till next year. Now weather that is a good thing or not, I'm not sure. Not knowing how the economy and job market will be next year is very scarey. I really try hard not to worry about it, because I know God is in control and he will take care of me. But that is a little easier said than done. I have been with the company for 9 years and I have learned a lot and grown as a person too. But the thought of having to start a new job and to have to get up and go to an office (I'm a home-based employee now) is a little frightening. I will not even be close to finishing my schooling before I lose my job so that is another concern, to find a job that works around my school schedule. Plus my current job is reimbursing for part of my school, which is a huge plus. Plus I make pretty decent money and have a lot of vacation time built up, so with a new job I will be starting from ground zero again. The company I now work for is starting to open a few jobs up for home-based employees, so I'm hoping I can get one of those jobs and stay with the company until I can get my schooling done. This is a very tough thing to go through, I guess I will trust in the Lord and realize he knows what is best for me.
