Im sorry beans, no Kinktober prompt today )): It's past midnight and I literally just laid down after running about all day. Tomorrow is my last day at my current job, so Im focussing on that for now.
Here's the long story, should you want to read it: my manager is a super super duper extremely nice person. We hit off immediately and we laughed and joked. And then shit turned sour. She appeared to be an extremist christian. It started innocently with opinions i dont agree with, or the fact that she takes an hour break, secluding herself from everyone to read the bible (fair bb, you do you). However, it didnt matter how nice she was, how much fun we had, she seemed to have ulterior motives. It wasnt long before heated discussions started about transgenders, homosexuals, pro abortion people, films and even politics and covid.
On the first friday, she gave me multiple bibles to read. Post it notes at certain passages, etc. I took them, but didnt read them. She basically tried to convince me of her opinions. Tried to convert me. She challenged my opinions with The Truth (she didnt like it when I called it her truth lol).
All films and media are "indoctrination" and I am indoctrinated as well (hun i worked in the film industry, i used to be PART of the group of people youre accusing of north korean behavior). There are more things she said (anti quran and anti covid rules stuff that im not gonna put down here cause yikes) that just genuinely made me want to run and never look back.
The past few weeks have been tough. Tears during the car ride home, long conversations with friends about how it was affecting me, and I gotta say, I did not expect this literal blessing to fall upon me (lol).
Before I started working at my current job, I put out a few applications that i didnt hear anything from. And then suddenly last week, I got an email. Immediately had my first interview, which lead to a second interview, which lead to a job offer. It is EXACTLY what ive wanted ever since i started applying for jobs. Its what ive studied for and even more!
The new boss wants me to learn and grow, give me the time and tools to do so as i grow into the business. Theres a pay rise and a shorter travel time too! Just,, generally everything is better there. And so, i went into work today and let my manager know that tomorrow is my last day there.
Im incredibly grateful that though she is sad to see me leave, she understands this is an opportunity i cant let pass. As i said, she is an incredibly sweet person, with good intentions based in her religion. But i came there to work, not to be converted into a religion based on fear.
SO, life's been a trainwreck and tomorrow i am finally closing that chapter of my life. Thanks if you read all the way thru this! It's a lot 😅
I tried really hard to squeeze the prompt in but I dont want to give you half assed work. Maybe ill catch up at some point! For now we're just gonna continue the days (aka skip day 8 for now). Im tired. Sunday ill have time again ❤️
