What to do now....

Today I ask for your prayers for my family.

Yesterday I lost my job basically becuase I am pregnant and what they said was that I wasn't going to be a permanent employee and they felt this job was too stressful for my condition. Let alone the fact that I always got everything done in a very timely manner and was always pleasant with everyone... (even when they were nasty to me). It's just all very upsetting to me right now. I didn't deserve that. I suppose everyone thinks that when it happens to them.

But honestly though... how easy is it going to be for me to find another job. Are people really going to take me serious when I walk into a place of business to ask for a job with the way I look now? I mean I look pregnant now... can't hide that. (wouldn't want to anyhow) I am just afraid it will be difficult to find another position that is going to work for us.
Anyway, I appreciate any prayers or positive thoughts you could send my way today.
Blessing to you.

Jenn -- First sign up with at least two temp agencys. They will send you out on short term jobs, probably reception or filing. But up front everyone will know you won't be there there more than a few days or weeks. Hang in there, each change usually has a good outcome. Love you, Sula

I agree with Sula, I have know women who did well doing a variety of short term jobs. They liked the variety and flexibilty it gave them. You don't have to worry about benefits, you will get those from Jonny. Then after the baby you can look at something more permanent and to your liking. Praying for you. Love you, Nancy
