This Weekend Got Started With What I Wish Was A Bad Dream

Friday Morning 7 am February 24th

After grinding through the last 11pm - 7am shift for the week, the sun is shining and I'm ready to go home, rest a bit and officially celebrate the start of the weekend. 7 am and I am ready to head home the manager whom I dislike the most, the one I mentioned last time, the one whom came from the bottom of the ranks and is in a management position after 20 years of service in a 25 year old company, called a meeting.

Short, bitter and to the point, he said my supervisor has been fired. Just like that.

This manager has been describe as a wolf in sheep's clothing, I've seen glimpses but he has emerged from his costume this time.

I remember when I did my job analysis not long ago, I said despite the minor few issues, I have a pretty good job. I was wrong and I regret typing that. This one thing is enough to change everything. My supervisor was fired unfairly, and on top of that, they gave him no compensation for his 14 years of service saying he wasn't doing his job. How can that be possible for 14 years?

Friday Evening approx. 4 pm February 24th

Said manager called my cell phone for the first time in almost 2 years of me working there(obviously he has no supervisor to call me) and ask if I would be willing to come in the night and work overtime. I said yes, not because I didn't care but because I wanted to get a chance to chat with the people on my shift.

Friday Night 11 pm February 24th

I arrived at work, we started talking and arguing with the shift before us and the head supervisor, every is upset, every had a point and things that needed to be said and made clear were done.

Saturday Early Morning 2.30 am February 25th

The pain was too much, I couldn't focus on work. I went home.

Saturday Sometime after I awoke February 25th

I got to work on cover letters for jobs I intend to apply for.

Sunday Night approx. 9 pm February 26th

I finally was able to type about this on the blog.

Just last week they broke my heart and spirit and I intended to up my search for another job, since then I've sent out 2 applications. I didn't think they could do any worse. This week they crossed the line. I was ready to up and resign from my job. If it wasn't for P and my current financial situation, I would be giving them a week's notice resignation letter tomorrow. If ever I want to be on top of my financial game, it is now.

Freedom is power. Freedom is destiny. Don't let finances restrain you. Take control starting today if you have not already. Try never to be in a position where you depend solely on your job. Get that EF up. Learn some skills. Invest in passive sources of income and side hustles. Be independent.
