I was pursuing a career in music and working days as an account manager. I woke up nearly deaf one morning due to a tumor. After hospitalization and subsequent radiation treatment, I moved back to my home state and started learning computers as a trade. I worked in retail fixing computers for 3 years, but my store went out of business. I then got a job refurbishing computers for a dirt bag employer. Three years later my boss fired me because I would not embezzle money for him. Now I cannot get a job interview because I can’t use a telephone and because I was fired from my last job.
I’m going to have to find yet another career field and start from ground zero. I try to stay positive, but it is really frustrating that one dishonest manager has the ability to end my career. What choice did I have? Keep my crappy job and risk jail? What if I got caught embezzling money for him? I would get fired and face legal charges. What did I have to gain? Nothing, the money was would be in his pocket.
My parents flew in to town for a quick visit yesterday. My hearing aid stopped working last night, perfect timing. I cannot even get it looked at until Monday, when my parents fly home. So I cannot have single conversation with them while they are in town.
This morning my 2 year old dog started twitching and will not get out of bed.
I started mowing the lawn this morning and the lawn mower broke. I am out of work and don’t have money to fix my lawn mower or take my dog to the vet. My car needs an oil change and new tires. The plates need to be renewed in a couple months.
I guess my life could be worse, and I am usually positive, but today things are just stacking up.
