.Two years ago I lost the one job I loved. I thought I loved it. Well I did love my job. There were some aspects that I could do without. I do take education very seriously. I just think that nor everyone is made for a traditional education.
There are those people that do great in a traditional school setting. Then there are those that learn more by doing.
I lost my job because I was getting fed up with how the school system was going. I did love my job. I tried to save it by writing a formal rebuttal to the evaluation that was written about me. I mistakenly signed and agreed to the evaluation because I believed that what was written must be true.
The problem was not my MS.
It sort of was. I did not use my MS as an excuse. I did have stress but it was because someone I love was killing themselves with alcohol and I was powerless to help them. I had seen alcohol hurt others and I did not want it to happen to them.
I informed my supervisor about my MS and even told my supervisor about my concerns for the person I care about.
Well with the stress of always performing at 110%., concern for the peron I love, and the stress of having my supervisor always tell me that it did not seem like I wanted to work for the department anymore.
I just wanted to do my job. I had more and more duties taken away from me. My job became boring. If I wanted to die that would be the way to kill me. Take away the duties I enjoyed. I waas bored. I hate being bored. So I put my head down and did the work I was allowed to do.
Deep down I knew that all I was doing was pushing papers to have children removed from school. I did say school is not for everyone. Then there are those who need time to discover who they are. Removing them from school with no options is not a good idea.
MS did play a role but any person under that much stress woul have had a problem. My MS seems to be slow moving. The only physical damage that I have now is a wierd feeling in my feet.
I gave birth to three healthy kids. Crazy but healthy kids.
So I lost my job for someone I love and I would do it again. Loving someone that much can be difficult.
