Third time lucky

Have you ever wondered why things happen the way they do? Well I do, all the time. Let me start at the beginning. In March I resigned my position with a Company, I was so nervous and was quite scared to do it. To my surprise the Branch Manager told me that I was an asset the the Company and that since I was moving so far away I should consider working at the Logistics side of the business. He said he would recommend me.

I thought, hey that sounds alright and so I went and did the whole meet my new employer even though I had already met him as he used to Manage Logistics at the same site as my job I just resigned from. Anyway, after starting there, I just got the job and only worked three days and decided that this wasn't for me and so I quit. I was pretty scared at the future of looking for work. So that morning I got onto the web and found the Company that I wanted to work for that happened to be in the town I live in.

They said they may have something going very soon in reception. In any case, I sent my details to them on their website and also called them. They replied a few days later saying that they would definitely keep me in mind. I thought great. Then I found some more details about another Company that I thought I may like to work for. I did the same thing, got the interviews and finally got the job. It had only taken me 2 weeks between jobs. I was amazed. I didn't hear anything more from the Company I really wanted that was in my home town.

In any case I worked not even two weeks when this other Company called me and so I went to the interview, however it wasn't an interview more like this is the job when can you start. I was thrilled and so I resigned from the other job. I am starting my new job on Monday.

The moral of this story is that this was a third time lucky situation and it panned out for me. It just goes to show you that when your confidence is high and you move to a new place and start fresh, it can be scary but at the same time your luck may finally come your way. This type of thing never happened to me before and sometimes I think my departed Mother had her hand in it in the spirit world.
