Anyone else feeling like life isn't working out how they thought it would?
Today is March 1st, and I will be officially unemployed in 30 days. Since high school, I have spent 4 years getting a good education from a good college, and then I moved to Calgary afterwards. Since moving, I have worked at a camera store for 1.5years, a barcode place for 6 months, and Canon for almost a year - each of which jobs really have nothing to do with my education (and neither does that sentence). Before Canon, both of my employers treated me like crap and didn't offer benefits or any support for employees at all, and were dead end (to me anyways)
Now I am finding myself with no job, no experience in the fields that I am educated in, and no education in the fields that I have experience in!!! I am getting very frustrated in my new job search, and I am getting stressed about it. I love my job at Canon, I loved working for the company who's product I use and invest in, and I love dealing with customers and solving the problems with their cameras. But soon it will be over...
I guess there is a good side though. As it's become a reality over the last few months, I have seen my faith and trust in God grow. I have become more disciplined in my devotions and bible reading, and I have been gaining a desire to know more about Christ. It's been a journey, but I think I am on the right track, and I'll have to just trust and wait to see what God has in store for me!
