It was Divine intervention!!!!!
Grandpa Lewis' hours were cut drastically in March, but I wasn't worried...I knew something would change. It had to change. I didn't really think God would let us suffer for too long. There had to be something in the works.
Before Grandpa ever got the first paycheck with the reduced hours, I got a call from someone I had sent a resume to probably about 10 years ago. He called to see if I knew anyone who might be looking for a job. Well it was right up my alley so I sent him an updated resume, I interviewed the next day, accepted the position the second day and started work on the third day. It all happened so fast it made my head spin. :hectic1:It turns out that the gentleman who had kept my resume all these years was the chairman of the board.
I hadn't worked in 8 years and I was told a few years ago that I was unemployable because I didn't have recent work experience. I believed the recruiter who told me that, so I never even tried to get another job. :sad: Guess he was wrong!
What a pleasant surprise to find a company who valued what I had been doing these last eight years (raising my grandbabies) and believed that still I had something to offer.
This job has been a blessing in many ways. I am thrilled to be there but I feel bad about abandoning you all, especially with no notice but I knew with a new job, I would be working every night just trying to get acquainted with my new position and I couldn't keep up here too.
I am grateful to CynthiaButterfly for taking over. She will be a terrific mod. She would spot deals that I missed. So ya'll give her the same great support that you showed to me. And thank you for allowing me to serve you for the short time that I did.
P.S.
Before I ever got my first paycheck at the new job, Grandpa Lewis' hours were restored. If the Chairman had called without the cut in hours, I might not have taken the job.....that's why I say it was Divine Intervention. Without God intervening, I wouldn't be working.
