odd timing

while at duffy's last night, i ran into a friend of my friend jenny. his name is justin and he's originally from georgia. he has been through bible college somewhere in georgia, a pentaoostal one. from his actions and words, he's left pretty much all of that behind him. we got to talking though. the subject of my job came up, jenny knowing that my last day at gallup is today. i asked justin if he knew of places hiring. come to find out he's a manager at the pita pit downtown on o street. he said, "i'll give you a job tonight". whoa! he even gave me a free meal there.

i'm excited to not have a lapse in employment. the culture at the pita pit among the employees is awesome and i fit right into most of it. there is food all around me and discounts on it - sweet! and i hang out downtown with people a lot, so it'll be nice to just be right there. but...

it's the pita pit. it's not the most desirable job by most anyone. but it is a job and i'll keep looking for another. the pay isn't super great, but with it being closer to home, i'm thinking i'll be driving less. plus there is a food discount. there will be some late hours involved too.

i'm thankful that i will still have an income as i continue to look for another job. i'm even more thnakful that i'm away from gallup, a job i simply cannot stand any longer. we'll see what happens. cheers . . ..

This is great news. God is so amazing! He might not give you what you want but He will surely give you what you need. I'm so pleased that this has worked out for you and good luck finding what you want.

Hello Scottie, I smiled when I read that you are no longer in a job situation that was odious to you. What a relief! God will take care of your next step. Like always, do your work like Jesus was your boss, and keep praying for His next step. Lori T
