Give Me a Break!

I don't know what it is about me, but I can't catch a break. Convergys is appealing the fact that I was awarded unemployment. It wasn't enough to knock me down and shove me into the dirt. You don't want me as an employee, fine. But while I'm down, they need to kick me too. Don't forget to put steal toed boots on first. You want to make sure I can't get back up. Maybe it's time I started looking for an attorney. Because I don't think this is fair. All I want to do at this point is move forward with my life.

This is why I doubt God exist. Or if He does, He doesn't like me. I can't catch a break. No matter where I go or what I do, someone or something is always getting in the way of me just providing a decent life for my family. I'm not looking for a hand out. I've never gotten unemployment before. But I do need a little help getting over the hump while I find a new job and cheaper place to live.

Crap, I just want to work, provide well for my family, do a good job at work, occasionally get recognized for my hard work and dedication, and be given the fair opportunity to move up and improve myself and my life. Is that an unreasonable expectation?

  1. Convergys will always appeal. It's policy. I'm not defending it. I hope things work out for you.
