My friends from my small group made me feel better last night about my job situation, said that just because I couldn't figure out how to use the jack at the distribution center doesn't make me any less smart. That physical ability is a little different than mental, and I'm not the most physical person.
But they believe I've been going through these experiences for a reason which will eventually payoff.
Reminded me of Thomas Edison, who failed 500 times to get the lightbulb to work, and when he finally succeded someone asked, about all the failed attempts. And he said, they weren't failures but he learned 499 ways not to do it. I'm learning ways that I don't want to spend my life.
Got a call this morning from the agency with a job where I would be assembling packets, putting papers together and making sure they are in the right order. Sounds like something I could handle and it is kind of in the publishing business. But they called back later and said they are also looking for someone who could work on saturday for overtime, and I can't this week because I have my lay speaking class. Didn't know if that would cancel me out for tomorrow or not and I've yet to hear back.
One of these days I'll find a way to shine, until then I just have to keep on trying.
