Horrible!
Martinez:
I have had the most horrible day!
I have been in my job for about five and half weeks and I tried so very hard to make it work.
I've had to work with this seventeen year old who has the foulest mouth and the worst temper and no self control since I started.
I worked for a party hire company and today I got fired!
Like I said, I tried so hard to make it work, but my memory is really poor and I have a hard time picking up a new job because of that.
Sines I started the job I have been constantly tired which I'm sure hasn't helped either, on top of that I have a lot of pain in my hips, wrists and other joints as well as well as other things that made it really tough to do my new job, but did not that get in my way.
Today my boss took me aside after I got back from a job and was not happy because I had an accident in the truck.
As I was changing lanes I side swiped a car!
The boss had told me not to stack these certain bits and pieces on the bottom of these other things because they were His and not part of the hired stuff and I forgot (the whole thing was very complicated and would be hard for anyone to get a handle on)
When He saw that I had forgotten He fired Me!
He said that it wasn't working out because I didn't what I was asked on several occasions.
This feels so unfair given the complicated nature of the job!
I was also accused of other things that I had nothing to do with.
One of the things He accused me of was yelling and arguing with the seventeen year old on a particular job but that was completely false and He would not believe me when I said I didn't do that!
What really hurts is that I tried so very hard to do a good job and make it work and I failed!
And all while being seperated from my wife and two little boys.
The worst part is that this is the story of my life!
I really feel that I have been targeted and my life has been unfairly made extremely difficult.
I can understand that God wants to humble me but Man how about a break every now and then, would it really hurt to have one thing work out occasionally?
Where ever I go it seems like I am the bottom of the social food chain.
I have been picked on my entire life by everyone, including my own family just because I am as someone put it "an easy target"
I really have had enough of this!

My heart goes out to you Martinez. I'll be praying for you. It's so hard to understand that this is God's will, when you're doing your best. Try to stay strong and keep trusting in Him--this life is our temporary training ground, we have to remember that. I'm sure someone here will be here soon with some scriptures to help.
Love in Christ,
Vangie

Hi Martin,
I'm sorry, I didn't realize you were separated from your family. That is so hard. Keep yourself from what you know to be wrong and forge ahead. There is no other thing I know of.
I will be praying that you will be able to keep your sanity and keep your hold on God, he is holding you.
I'm not trying to minimize your problems at all. Just wanted you to know that I am praying that you find your answers, the answers to your problems are out there you just need to be guided to them. That is where my prayer for you is going :) Please hang in there and don't give up!
Prayers,
Kathy :)

I truly sympathise with your situation. Life can be so unfair. And you're right. It really stinks that you have gone through this your entire life. But be glad that you know truths of God that very few people know. Personally, I don't know how I got through my earlier years not knowing what I know now. I too, have felt that I was dealt the short stick in life. I seem to learn everything the hard way. It takes me more time to catch on to things than those around me. And now I keep forgetting where I put things. This isn't about me so I'll cut this part short. But because you know these truths of the Creator, just ask God to lead the way. Make life simple and keep running the race. Find a suitable job, and if it is difficult, just ask God to walk you (or run you) through it.

I hope I can convey this rightly if not please don’t take offence. First and foremost I worked for and employer all my life until now. Now because of the economy I was laid off and have become my own employer.
I know of the difficulties of working for any company, you know, they tell you what time to get out of bed by telling you what time work starts. And when you can take lunch, even when you can take your vacation and don’t forget 30 for me and 1 for you.
Then you have the politics of the office and the clicks within the general work force. All this horrible stuff just to earn enough money to survive.
I worked for an oil company and the owner knew nothing about my trade and when I was out doing night calls all hours of the night he was home sleeping. Now the employer knows the employee needs the job to earn money to pay the bills and this is the power the employer has over the employee.
More than once I remember I had to bite my tongue when some manager said something stupid and Lord knows I wanted to turn into the devil but I remembered that money thing that pays the bills, yeah I know about the bull many working people have to put up with.
Martinez, I’m serious now, if you have a trade or if there is anything you can do to be a contractor go for it. Last week I went on my computer and looked up the ten day forecast and had noticed in my area it was going to rain from Wednesday unto Saturday and I did not sheulual any work until after Veterans Day.
What freedom God has given me through being a contractor, I wish every working person could be there own employer and not have to put up with so much bull everyday.
Pray to God and express your concerns, God made you and He knows you better than you know yourself. I believe God made some of us in a way we just can’t work for someone else.
Martinez, you might think me crazy now but I would rather drop dead than work for any employer, they are nothing but greedy human beings who rob their workers of decent wages, you know they only pay you enough to make sure your back to work on Monday morning whether your sick or not.
Martinez, sometimes I get so angry about it, you know, I can hardly wait for God to chuck them into the lake of fire and make them learn not to be greedy…..LOL
I don’t know if what I said helps you Martinez but one thing I will tell you, don’t feel ashamed and keep your head up and pray to God above all and ask God to help you start your own business.
In God's Love. Richard.
