i've been struggling with my job since the start of this year. i thought maybe i was being called to a "special" ministry - a career perhaps that is really focused on God. but He clearly told me that that was not the case, and I was to stay at my job. so i did. but in the past weeks things have really been just suffocating for me already. i couldn't do it anymore. i really felt like i needed a change. and i felt so strongly about it that i was able to tell my friends about it, even those from work.
my friends were really supportive when i told them i was looking for a project manager position. they even said that i should have said something earlier as there was an open position a few weeks back. when they told me that i was thinking why my timing wasn't right. so i felt stuck.
then, one afternoon, i got a call from my boss asking if i had a minute. i was really confused and thought i was in trouble. it clearly showed on my face that she had to tell me to wipe that look off my face coz i wasn't in trouble. she then proceeded to tell me that i was being transferred to a new project, one that is so different from the things we are doing now. we are moving forward on a client-server QA process. and that is exactly what i needed! a total change from the things that i'm currently doing.
i was ecstatic. how could it be? when she & i didn't have the relationship that warrants my openness about how i feel at work? it was really out of the blue that a few of my coworkers actually asked me how i managed to do it. i guess we are all becoming really tired of doing the same things over and over again. and yet, i didn't do anything to get this. it was all dad. thank you, dad, for granting me my needs even before i ask for them. you are amazing!
and as an added bonus (spoiled ako kay dad eh!), my boss announced that she is retiring effective dec. 1st. wow. grabe na to. waaah.....lord, thank you, i don't deserve your love. pero i'll take it kasi yun ang correct response. =)
