Dude, It does suck to be looking for work now. There are so many qualified people looking also, so it is no easy transition. Good luck.
I understand where everyone is coming from, especially considering this is Act 2 and I realize why I won't receive the benefit of the doubt this time.
But I must stress that this time it's a whole different ball game.
Same coin, yet the opposite side.
I feel the facts are getting lost in translation. I did not jump off the cliff this time. I am not blaming God for anything. I take full responsibility for the welfare of my family and my love for them comes 2nd ONLY to my love for God.
This time, I was pushed out the door, against my will. I did not choose to have my laptop stolen from me. I admit my fault in not watching it as diligently as I should have. I failed in that regard, no doubt.
However, I feel this is a blessing, and a God given opportunity. The old me would have been devastated at this news. The current me, with the bad parts of me flushed, is excited about the chance to serve God's will in a whole new environment.
There is no blame, except to myself for not having a keen eye when I should have. There is no 'emo'. There is only the truth and the way.
Kori,
I understand your concern about the financial aspect of the matter.
I've learned my lessons from 05. I believe that's what 05 was all about. My trial run, so I could fall and fall again, and learn from those failures. All of which resulted from bad decisions, time and time again, decisions based on selfish desires, and evil intentions.
That is no longer the case. I have managed all of the household related finances for the past two years and will continue to do so. I do not wish to pass on any unnecessary burdens to my wife. That said, I will sit down with her and inform her of our budget and my plan, get her input, and adjust accordingly.
I don't expect anyone here to believe me or to have faith in me. I'm just a man finding his way and trying with all I've got to not stray from the path of righteousness from here on out. I will fail again in my life, multiple times, but hopefully not nearly as many as I would have before, under my old ways of operation.
Faith and undeniable believe in God and Jesus as the way is what I'm here to be an example of. I don't know God's will, but I feel the love, and I feel I will not fail.
GodBless you all, and sincerest Thanks.

Thanks jcrod, I appreciate your well wishes.
I'm more than ready to throw my hat, resume, and self-confidence in the ring.
As long as I work diligently to get my name in as many appropriate HR boxes as possible, I'm willing to let the chips fall where they may.
I'll work 80 hrs a week as a garbage man to keep from losing this house.
I'm not concerned with status in the least, but losing this house to me, means losing the faith of my wife, and that's not something I can afford to lose.
I have no fear. I will do what I have to do.
you make angel luv look like a rookie.
You crazy MOFO! When are you going to learn? Family comes first! It is second to NOTHING! Did you tell your wife that she comes second in your life before you married here? I'm guessing not...
Secondly, do you remember this?
This is why you got fired. Losing your laptop was just one more log added onto the fire. How can your employer trust you overseas when you do this kind of ? You need to WAKE THE UP DUDE! I'm guessing you need medication, but that's for a doctor to decide. I advise that you go see one.
I went to the Dr. this morning. I am taking care of business.
I know you are advising with the best of intentions tlong, and I'll take your words to heart for consideration.
Much love man.
GodBless you.
Best move yet.
Must be nice being a jesus freak. Every time you mess up - "it's god's will I tellz ya!!"
"The devil made me do it!"
Zak…Knowing “Gods Will” is really not that difficult to figure out…
Gods Will is getting out of bed & getting to work on time even when you are hung over & feeling like garbage… Gods Will is being polite to your employer & co workers even when they are obnoxious & incompetent… Gods Will is following the rules; even if they seem petty …Gods Will is playing with your children, helping them do their homework, listening to your teenage daughter, even though she sounds like she is from outer space… Gods Will is paying the kids orthodontist bills, when in reality you want a new truck...Gods Will is making love to a woman you sometimes can’t stand & treating her with the same kindness & respect that you did when you were dating...
Damn! SC almost made me religious!
You are right Sportcamper.
One of the teachers of the law came and heard them debating. Noticing that Jesus had given them a good answer, he asked him, "Of all the commandments, which is the most important?" "The most important one," answered Jesus, "is this: 'Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is one. Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.' The second is this: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.' There is no commandment greater than these." (NIV, Mark 12:28-31).
GodBless you.

like god gives a where you work
I work for Him now and forevermore.
God is my defacto Boss.
Of course He cares where I do work in His name.
Good morning to all. Have a Blessed day.
Do you have any more money? I think God probably wants you to give it to me.

If they are giving you abilify, seroquel or ther atypical antipsychotics (ADAs) then you need to go to a different doctor. From what you are saying, you are prone ot severe manic symptoms but from what I have read you show nothing of schizoeffective disorder.
ADA are often prescribed because drugs like lamictal and tegatrol no longer are patented while they can charge 700% more for an ADA. Thats why you see the blitz of ads on TV and why your shrink will have cabinets full of free samples to give you.
Unfortunately, ADA's have serious side effects such as increase in diabetes which bipolars already have a proclivity towards and a condition called ive dyskinesia. TD is that thing you see people in mental ins utions do where they twitch and loll there tongue and the like involuntarily. The beauty of it is that once you get it, it doesn't go away even after you stop taking the drug.
I suppose if you are having paranoid delusions, solid hallucinations or other psychotic behavior associated with schizoeffective disorder consider ADAs although I am sure there are better meds that that. Otherwise stay the away from them and the bas s that peddle them.
You have some pretty serious manic episodes though and a mood stabilizer makes a lot of sense, something like lithium or tegatrol.
Wow. Thank-you very much for the heads up. I never wanted to take these in the first place, but I was giving the doctors the benefit of the doubt that maybe they knew something I didn't, and thinking that God put these pills in my path for a reason. They also instilled a bit of caution in me when they told me that stopping these cold has bad side effects.
I got 4 days of free samples of seroquel yesterday morning and then a whole months prescription at HEB in the afternoon.
They have me on 300mg. But the samples are 150mg and they expected me to just double up. I think I am going to read up a bit on wiki about the drug, but then start dosing down, starting tonight and take 150 for a couple days and then stop altogether.
In the meantime, I do have a Dr's appt with a mental health doctor setup for next month and I'll investigate the mood stabilizers you suggested. I think it depends on how I feel my mental state is at that time.
I'd prefer to be drug free 100%.
I understand that clinically, what I am experiencing is a 'manic' episode, but that is only because people refuse to think outside the box.
Episodes go away. This is for life.
Believing in true love in its purest form with all your heart, mind, and soul is not a manic episode. It is a spiritual awakening.
Thanks for the advice. GodBless you.
for some people it's a spiritual awakening, for some people (you....cough cough) it's just another manic episode.
