Owwwwwwwwww....the "burn" doesn't always feel so good the next day. But at least I can thank God I am able to use those muscles I now feel...

Work has been terrible lately. Being "second" can suck. I have a coworker (and friend) who is in all probablity about to be fired...and I can't warn her as I was told in a management meeting. This woman is a single mom, just bought a house a year ago and barely makes ends meet. We are employed by a church organization and therefore do not pay into unemployment and when she is let go, she will get her final check and that's it. She has been planning a trip to see her son who will be home for one month for the birth of his daughter, and then redeploys, and now I doubt she'll be able to go. True, she has been warned in the past that the behavoir she displayed could be cause for dismissal should it arise again (which it did) but I can still feel bad for her. To be honest, I don't know what to do....well, i do...I have to stay quiet about it, or my neck is on the line...but Damn, I can support her after hours when she finds out right...and no, she DOESN"T know I know and would not likely find out I know as it was just the DM and my direct boss at the meeting....am I wrong to not say anything??? Where does friendship come in versus my family's security. Wish I could just say screw it and tell her, but unfortunately, I do need this job....( a story unto it's own)

When I figure out how to let someone know about this blog...maybe one of ya'll will have an answer for me....

Off to bed...sleep will bring peace....or at the very least, quiet!

Sometimes I wish all I did was teach.
