ups and downs

 i was just getting ready to sign off, and had stumbled upon my own shares here. having just read the one i left about my job and being positive. i find it so ironic as to the situations that have taken place in that area of my life. i had asked for a meeting then, to share with work my new attitude and commitment, when i was dealt the transfer or lay off choice. such a big up to have been dealt such a low  down.  but here's the irony of it. i was getting what i wanted anyway. why i had let it upset me  i'll never know. i worked to get past that and was rewarded as my attitude again went to taking this as a success. my reward? once my boss made it clear at a meeting that he was going to have to transfer me, 2 other stores spoke up to request me. so in leaving one unit, i now have three that want me to come work with them. and all three closer to my home. an exercise in never losing faith. some opportunities and successes come to you disguised as disappointments.  thank goodness, tools opened my eyes to this. now i won't miss out.
