End of the Road

They say that when one door closes, another door opens… not sure if I agree, but I definitely think some doors should be closed. And now one is in process of being shut, locked, and the key being thrown into the abyss. The pharmacy at which I am working through a temp agency has put a hiring freeze in effect, because of how much business they’ve been losing. No temps are being converted to company employees, including me. When they told me my last day would be January 31st, it was like a huge and massive weight had been lifted off my chest. I could breathe easy. I felt relief. This couldn’t have worked out better had I planned it. I have been applying to other positions and had an in-person interview this morning for a delivery position ($23.50 an hour plus a four ten-hour shift schedule… not bad!). I’m hopeful that closing this chapter will enable me to spread my wings in other areas of my life. I should probably be scared or angry. However, since this last year and a half has been killing my soul, I can only say that it’s a perfect ending to a decade in a field I’ve long outgrown.

I admire your attitude. Wish I could be more like you. I hope you will have lots of good luck in the new year. Best wishes to you and thanks for sharing your thoughts. Right now I can use inspiration like yours.
