I really could use some prayer and good thoughts right now

Post by NancyG67 »

 I am sorry to ask for this for myself as I am sure there are others out their that could use them more then me, but..

A couple of weeks I found out the store I work for has been sold to another chain store.  Rather then everyone keeping their same positions and jobs the new store interviewed everyone.  When I put my name down for my interview time it asked for 'position'.  I thought it ment position we were seeking empolyment for but it ment what our current position was.

Well, I just wanted to keep my job, rather I kept my current position or got a new one, as long as it was full time I would be happy.  BUT, I would love to still have my current position.

They did the interviews and I interviewed with the wrong person.  I should have interviewed with the District Manager as he was the one interviewing for the management positions (that is what I currently have).  I think the person interviewing me should have stopped the interview when he realized what position I was  interviewing for and went and told the DM but he didn't.

Now I have been worried sick, mentally and physically for a week now that I am going to miss out on my opportuinity to keep my job.  We are supposed to know this week sometime.  Please keep me in your thoughts.

 YOu got it!!
I think I would place a call to the district manager and just say that you wanted to clarify your position and let him/her know that while you do want to keep your management position, you would also consider a non-management position if a management one wasn't available. It may ease your mind and let them know how serious you are about staying with the company.
I hope that it all works out for you.

 Will keep you in my thoughts and prayers too.     If there has been some miscommuncation between you and the interviewing team; I don't think you should be penalized but deserve to explain and clarify your intentions to maintain your job position.      Take care.    Best of luck.

 Oh Nancy,  good luck!
There has got to be somebody you can call to get this straightened out.  Remember:
1) Squeaky wheel gets the oil
2)Nobody is going to watch out for you better then you can.  If you don't do it, chances are, no body else will, or can. 

I'm sure once they hear what happened they will make sure you are down for the right position.  But it should be done before they make up their minds.
Good luck!!! I hope everything works out.

 there is nothing wrong with your prayer request. you have taken the right step by asking for prayer and I know the lord will make sure you and your family are ok. I will be sure to ask the lord to guide your path.
