I was officially let go from my job. I'm really happy about it though because I was holding onto an anger that I couldn't move past. The only real negatives were the loss of income and insurance. I got a lot more good things from this than bad things.I felt free and happy. I no longer have to see people who lie to my face while stabbing me in the back. I no longer have to go to NF, which is the place I grew up, but never really belonged. I got back on track in terms of what I want to do for a career: I want to become an Employment and Labor law lawyer with a concentration on mental illness.
I was underemployed and underpaid. I was the subject of a witch hunt the second I stood up for myself and complained about management misconduct. They waited a year, so that I couldn't claim retaliation. I will file an EEOC complaint. It may not go anywhere, but their misconduct needs to be reported.
I will be able to do some amazing things without working in an repressive ultraconservative environment. I will always put on the show just like Freddie used to. I will hopefully find a job where I am useful and can help people in a powerful way.
I will miss him, but he made his choice. I could say he chose his poison because that's what my former company was, pure poison. Everyone I know and cared about will probably be gone from that place very soon. I pity those that stay.
Now, I can get healthy. There are some obstacles ahead and a change in priorities. I will have to find a job and will probably have to apply for benefits under the affordable care act. I will have to do something with my student loans. I have the time to get all these tasks done.
I'm looking forward to the future and will work like hell to get myself healthy. I am going to work on the nonprofit. My former company was terrible. Their behavior will not be acceptable one day. Hopefully, I can bring that out.
