Although at first, I looked at my current employment as a blessing, in my heart I know it is close to time to my moving on to do other things and yet, I seem stuck in a rut, and it has caused some tension for me, which has reflected in my attitude towards one of the managers on my team.... I trained her in, and now she's my boss, and she is younger than me....This has been a real test not only of my patience, but also of my pride.
I am learning to not look at the situation as it is, to truly step out of the box, so to speak, and embrace this challenge. I see it as really building my character and helping me learn how to be patient and how to humble myself and listen to the manager, even though we have not gotten along in the past.
So from practical experience, my advice to anyone in a similiar situation, try and look first at yourself and see if there is anything that you can do to try and correct the problem. There is a lesson for each of us with every situation that we encounter. Just do your best and don't give up. Also, it wouldn't hurt to pray about it, and reflect on the situation that is bothering you.
Ask yourself what is it that bothers you about it, and what, if anything can you do to alleviate your stress level.
Remember that you are being a witness to everyone that you come into contact with. Especially if you are a person of faith. It doesn't matter what religion you belong to, or what name you use to call upon GOD the FATHER of us all. I challenge whomever reads this page to
LIVE their faith 24 hrs a day 7 days a week, and pray for the person who gets under your skin the most! Who knows, perhaps by your witness to them, they will one day become a member of your religion because of your testimony. Your testimony doesn't need to be you sharing scriptures or trying to teach them by mouth, but more covertly, it could be that your actions will testify louder than any words you could ever say.
Hope this is helpful to someone out there!
