My lil’ job complication
Current mood:  tired
Category: Blogging
Hi everyone..
This is just a quick blog to tell you what's been going on.
I'll probably be deleting this one - (this blog) later.. mainly cause I've made my myspace profile a profile dedicated to Jesus my Lord & Savior... and well, in my eyes... my life is not as relatively important as the souls in each one of you whether it's to uplift you & help others and/or help you get on the right track.. so that you too can be saved if you have an open heart to have a relationship with God.
So anyhow..
ummm... I haven't been on myspace lately due to all the craziness that's been goin' on. I felt that there were just too many people I know via email-myspace-etc. so.. I figured this was the best way to tell everyone all at once so that I don't have to keep re-typing the same story to each person. lol. Sorry.. I know it isn't as cool.. cause it's a lot less personal that way. But bear with me!
Okay so, I've have been doing free-lance illustrating, logos, caricatures, etc. at home since I've moved here to Australia. I couldn't work the 1st 9 months I lived here - due to waiting on paper work & international work visa stuff... so I had a pretty long vacation (that I felt I needed. hee-hee!)
Anyhow, I've wanted a job outside of the home to bring some guaranteed weekly money in as well as get myself out of the house so that I could learn more about the country I'm now living in. I have been looking for months. Little did I know - here in Melbourne, Au. it is not very easy to find a job in the field that I'm in.
So well, after much waiting & looking for months for a job in the art/computer field, I JUST got this job (well... I think - at least for now) I'm still on a 2 week trial period. I started last week, Thursday.. and from what I've learned.. they are in a crunch time period. Mind you, I JUST STARTED! But they really want us to get a move on!
All it basically is.. is, rendering technical machinery (LOTS of it) with the present project we're working on. We are to do everything in a program called, Photoshop (which most of you know already what that is)
Okay.. I'm going to sort of talk about an anonymous person. But PLEASE don't take this as me gossiping... I am very aware that it's not of God and it's not something I like other people doing as well.
I'm just trying to give you an idea of what I'm going through.
So far.. there are an abundance of nice people there whom I believe are really sweet & genuinely nice. Then... there's just one that I believe who doesn't have a likeing toward me. I don't know if it's cause I'm a American or what. Unfortunately, that person happens to be in charge of giving me my assignments. I feel like they may be purposely trying to get rid of me.. on the sly side... by giving me the work that takes the longest... as well as not giving me enough info. at the beginning of what I have to do.
I do believe the person just may have a few personal problems of their own. I don't know - only God knows. To tell you the honest truth, I'm not even going to blame the person (if I don't get to keep the job) but, I DO believe that I may be able to impart a loving attitude toward them and keep a good attitude dispite their ways toward me till the last day I'm there - whether that's a long period of time or a short one. They all know I'm a christian and proabably all think I'm crazy.. but that's natural I guess. lol!
The point is.. that I've been working an abundance of over-time. I've been getting there at 8:00 instead of 8:30 am, and.. I even stayed the other day till 10:30 pm!!! Where as, the hours for all of us are generally up to only 5:30 pm. We can stay late if we want to. 7:30-8:00 pm is the generaly late-hour work shift if we decide to stay late.
So, I'm really doing my best to show I'm a hard worker & not afraid of challenges. There are only about 5 artist there who are working. So.. it's a small amount of people for a whole lot of work!!! Despite all that.. only God knows if this was truly a plan of His. I am in prayer about it all.. and at the same time I'm trying not to let the hinderence of foul-play against me to get me down. I know that in the end.. it's a spiritual battle... and I'm completely at peace about it all.
I'm a BIT worried --- not lacking faith in the plans God has for me --- but more so.. in the hope that I had toward finally being able to work properly amongst a new culture. I have yet to experience any of that... and I've been here for quite some time now. I was just hoping it could be in the field that I am comfortable working in. So, it's sort of a bummer to the flesh.. if this wasn't what God had in mind for me. 
The mind of God is so high & mighty... I couldn't even begin to IMAGINE what He has in store for my future. So.. I won't try and complicate things by straining to figure it out. lol! I'll just let God be God.
So, please forgive me for not being around lately. I've just barely gotten time to myself lately. And the little time I have - I will give to God.
Thanks for understanding. I'll be around again soon.
in Christ Jesus,
Esly.
