Don't Get To Comfortable - Another blank canvas, starting over AGAIN

Here we go again. I've been at my job for 3 weeks now. I'm enjoying it. Have a few concerns on how things are being operated in a training aspect but I figured it would change; this is only your first day.

As the weeks go on, I'm self motivated,  getting projects done and I'm feeling ready.  Ready to be in charge,  make some changes, game face on.

Not long after this I am called to an office.  When I haven't had much talking or interaction with this man since my start date I knew it likely wasn't going to be good. "shut the door " We have now entered a serious conversation.
*disappointed
*rule breaker
*unfixable
*failing to meet our expectations

What can I do to fix it? I ask. "I just don't know if there is anything. " he sits back in his chair and asks if I want to talk about anything else?  Do I have other concerns outside of work that I wanted to share?

No and no.  I've been here a few weeks,and  yes, I'm crying at this point. Are you going to be okay?  He asked.

I'm fine, as I shudder through tears.

24 Hours Later @4:23 p.m.
They parade their way into my office with a box in hand. I already know what's coming next. "We regret to inform you that today is your last day. You'll need to get your stuff" - box is then pushed towards me.

"There were expectations and those just weren't met.  It's just not a right fit. "

"I don't have anything, I say."  Remember,. I haven't even been here a month. And, I'm glad I grabbed my extra protien bars the night before.

Never once was there a detailed conversation on what expectations I wasn't meeting.  I knew something was up when I was working on a project that had my name on it earlier but was now replaced with the former public relations managers name.  Touche when they walked in with the box.

One of the female Staff  personnel walked me out and said, "thank you for keeping your composure and we do wish you the best in the future. " How encouraging after they just let you go.But obviously I have skills that can be utilized somewhere else.

Life goes on. My canvas is a lite bit more filled now with a house, new car, and no job. But things happen for a reason... Or so I say, and truly hope.
And my crazy life continues

I've Got This

I've been silent for quite some time from this blog. At times I don't always know what to say and don't always want to have negative things going on to write about. However, at the same time I am so tired of having to be fake and being "OK" all the time. I'm not perfect, and I'm doing better. Some days are better than others and some days are even great. I'm so happy at where I am at these days and I am feeling so accomplished for so many things. At the same time, there are days where I feel like I'm thrown back and have to face everything head on all over again. I'm learning that my former extended family doesn't belong to me any more, especially now that there is another girl in A's life. I need to allow for her and A and his family to start their own memories and start developing whatever relationship is going to happen. I absolutely adore them and will always care about them. Seeing pictures of the lake, and the pontoon makes me m...

Infertility

So once again I attempt to start my blog on weight loss. However, I've entered a new chapter in my life. Babies. Well not quite yet, but we'll get there. Here's some history..... I was diagnosed with endometriosis in March of 2010, only 3 months after getting married. I had a laparoscopy and had 5-6 different areas. I continued treatment with birth control overlapping each month and when that didn't seem to help the symptoms I started on Lupron. For those of you that are familiar with this product you can attest to its wonderfulness as well as its downfalls. The Lupron put my body into menopause at the age of 24 :) Fun Fun fun!!!! On the first round of shots I did not have a hormone replacement pill which I wish I would have. I had shots every month for 3 months then took a break. In June I had a 3 month dose of Lupron again. The pain continued and I had a second laparoscopy with a tubular dye study in September, and here we are. Our game plan...... My OB/GYN wants to t...

True Happiness

If I actually had real followers on here I might get some feedback on what truly makes you happy? Think about it......how many people can honestly say they are TRULY happy. And if you say, "Yes" I want to know your secret. Everyone has a bad day or two or a shitty situation that they wished they hadn't had to go through. But I do believe there are really, actual happy people out there, And I used to be one of them, Or maybe I was just young and naive at the time as well. The paths we take, the experiences we make, and the people we meet will all contribute to happiness. But I also think that there are too many people out there who aren't happy but aren't willing to take the steps to find out what it is that is making them unhappy and then make the change. For my instance, I have been jumping from job to job thinking that I was missing out on utilizing my creativity that I love so much.  I didn't like the daily task of data entry and poor work environment...
