Office Woes
Hello guys... most of u would have gotten my sms. If you haven't, please pray for me. Tomorrow is my last day at work and it will be a battle ground. Boss came in this morning and criticised my work as sloppy and said that I hadn't put in effort. Then he dug out old projects and demanded that I complete them before I leave - he doesn't care how I do it. He threathened to not hand me my pay if I fail to do so.
I had submitted my one month notice for resignation last month's 26th meaning my last day at work was last week and not tomorrow. But because the magazine wasn't done - not my fault, the articles and photos were not in - I told my editor and lady boss that I'll just stay on for 2 more days to finish as much as I can. When I left the office last week, I had already completed the layout for thr photos/articles that were in and for responsibility sake, I have already done my part. If he had wanted me to complete the other projects before I leave, he should have told me so much earlier - no? That is what the one month notice is for, isn't it?
So he is - as usual - unreasonable. And he wouldn't listen when I tried reasoning with him. He just spoke louder, started shouting and exaggerated things then left the room. After that, he left for the whole afternoon and didn't return even when I left at 640pm.
Tomorrow will be my greatest hurdle yet. Please pray that I would present myself in a godly manner and that God may give me the strength and the wisdom to react appropriately.
On a side note, I thank God for Sonia. She called me last Thursday regarding a contract job at her company (my intern company) and that solved all my unemployment woes for next month. It's not permanent but at least I won't be jobless. God is good! He answers prayers! :) Thanks you for praying for me for God's direction even if He's only opened up the doors to a new company for month. Also, when I had that clash with my boss this morning, I smsed Sonia to asked her what should I do if my boss threathened not to pay me if I can't finish all that before I leave. After my boss stomped out of the room, I was relatively calm. My heart was beating fast but I was fine. All until when Sonia called me to ask me how's things... that I broke down. By then I had walked away from the office and my colleagues and was behind some buildings. In a way... God sustained me for as long as it was needed and then helped me to let it out. :)
Please pray for me!!!
