Brand New Me

Letting go of the past is necessary in order to move forward in life. I am not perfect and yes I have made choices that I should have put more thoughts into it. Yes, God gives the freedom to make the choices we want freely. If it is not the right choice trust me God will let you know until you learn that lesson. Reflecting on my past and the lessons that I have learned.

Starting my career was not easy and I was not making enough in my field when I first started out. I would go to the career fairs at campus to look for an internship and felt that they had set the requirements so high for students at an HBCU and not the same requirements for a non HBCU student. I graduated with not much experience under my belt and felt the heat when it came looking for a job.

I would cry about not getting any offers after graduation and applying. I think God wanted to teach me lesson about it. I was in a stressful married at the time and trying to graduate. Yes, my married had failed because it was choice that I wanted and it was not the choice that God had for me. I can not change the past but I had learned from this situation that God had my back. I was going through a divorce and did not have anything to my name but God made a way for me to have a job. It was not the idea job but it paid the bills. I was so heartbroken by how I was done by this person who said that they loved me and made vows to me. All of it was a mirage and all I had left in the end was my pride. I had to start over my whole life. God took me out of a situation, tore me down, and rebuilt me as a new person. Thank you God for giving me a second chance to start over new and just focus on getting to where I wanted to be in my career.

No Church In The Wild

Story from the Trap House, I remember when I first started working here. It was so different from what I was used to working at. The people were from another planet that I had once been in before. My first day was crazy when I met the team for the first time. It was already too much drama between 2 of the co workers who were working there at the moment.

I remember it was last day at the Trap House and I just got in to work my last day. Guess what! The drama took place because of the 2 people could not agree and the other person was tired of dealing with the mental abuse. As they argued and voices started to escalate. I asked one of the guys to go take a walk and I got ignored. So the other guy got upset about the other guy talking about his car. Bam, he hit the desk sectional and started aiming at the other guy. It got so loud that HR had came to the scene and the security guard ran up to separate the guys. Both guys were let go based on their actions and how they dealt with the situation.

It opened up the door for me to get hired on full time. I learned from the situation that you can have toxic coworkers in your workplace who are not in your corner. Also to keep you personal and private life at home.
