Q u i t; that's how I spelled relief

Although I know that I needed out of the Comcast job at CTIS I have been disturbed somewhat with my employment at "The Electrician". The job offered great pay and benefits and was appealing to the prideful side of the flesh with titles and positions such as "field superintendant". Other than all that great stuff I have not been settled in my spirit over the position and that is what matters. In my very short time at the company I have discovered that the boss is not very honest, he pressures customers into making bad decisions, he is not an electrician himself (thus not knowing codes and such), his prices are through the roof, and he expects his employees to be dishonest as well which is something I cannot swallow. Well I have been troubled in my spirit but the thought of quitting made me shiver. I need a job and a good paying one at that.

This morning on the way in I was eat up with conviction over the job. God had convinced me that this job was not right for me. I went to work troubled but when I pulled into the office I made up my mind. The only way to get relief from the burden was to quit. I called a buddy and arranged a ride home, cleaned off the truck, and gathered my personal items. I told the boss I needed to speak with him and I shared my personal concerns. I told him straight up I had to quit because my spirit was troubled. he got mad, puffed up, called me a few things, but the burden is gone and I feel that the Lord is pleased.

Here it is just 6 hours later and already I have filed paperwork with another comapany and I start tomorrow. This new company is called CGI electric and they are located south of here in Cool Springs. Many of their employees are people that I know and formerly worked with at 2 different companies. We all get along great and always worked well together. For now I will be working on a new YMCA in Bellevue. A new project is getting ready to begin in Smyrna here very soon and the owner, Steve, wants me to run that job. At that time a raise and a truck will be discussed. As for now I am making the same hourly wage as I was and I have holiday and vacation time as well. For now the only difference is the company vehicle, well the only difference that matters and was reliable. I feel so relieved and so good about this job.

I smell lunch so I guess I'll go scope out the kitchen. Here I come Wendy!
