I Think This Counts...

So 24 hours ago I posted that I felt like something big was coming...

Does being fired count?

Someone reported something I wrote on my Facebook to my bosses and because of it I could be fired. I have a meeting with HR on Monday. I have been hysterical since I got home. I just can't figure out why something like this is happening to me.

It wasn't implicating anyone or my company specifically, no names were mentioned and I was trying to be funny (although the undertone was my honest thought and frustration). But somehow someone who is not my friend (I have the privacy settings as high as they go) linked on from one of my other friends comments to that post and reported it.

Crazy thing was, I was warned about this by my boss Wednesday at a department meeting due to the nature of my job and I came home and double checked my settings to make sure they were as private as they went. I don't even have words to describe how devastated I will be if I lose my job.

I pray you keep your job. I do know from experience though, that you can lose a job for the slightest, most ridiculous reasons. Seems like at those times, it is God showing me that He has a different plan for me.

sometimes I worry so much I make myself sick and then find out it wasn't anything like what I was worried about. I got fired once. I agreed to work the night shift and at 2...I fell asleep. I was warmed not to do it again. I did it again. They fired me. Try to have a good weekend...will be praying for you.

I hope things come out okay--just be honest about the whole thing. I'll be thinking about you Monday. I know its silly to say, but don't worry about it until you need to. That will just make the rest worst, right? And, you are so much more than a Facebook status--you are an awesome teacher!

I just found your blog. Not sure how. Just restarted mine after going on a whim and deleting it in a moment of coming unglued....anyhoo, I enjoyed it and will come back. It interested me mostly because my therapist's name also starts with "A" and that's how I have always referred to her on message boards and on my blogs... I live in Atlanta, though, so anyway...just wanted to say hello.
