Shar,

I hate to admit this, but I've been fired ... twice. The first time was almost a year ago. Like the others said, the fit was totally wrong for me, but I continued with the job even though I hated it, and it hated me. A career is important to me, and I was never so miserable as I was in this job. Consequently, even though it was embarrassing to be fired, it also was something of a relief.

The second time was my very next job, and after only 3 weeks on the job. Having been through it the first time made the second time easier, even though I suspect there were other motives for my termination at this job. However, I'm not upset that it didn't work out.

Not surprisingly, my self-esteem at this point was non-existent and my anxiety was killing me. I had never been fired before; my other jobs were long-termers where my performance had always been praised, and my bosses had begged me not to seek other employment. I was totally unprepared that someone might one day not like me or my work. It was an eye opener, but not a bad thing in hindsight. Like the others said, you will eventually find the right job for you. What is more difficult right now is the unknown ... not knowing when, where, or even if, but you'll somehow survive, and this too shall pass.

Good luck ... I'm working at a job where my work is again praised. Nice to be wanted and needed ... again.

Snowie
