My hubby went through something similar. He took a job that turned out to be totally a bad deal. He felt trapped, but that job put him in another town where he read an ad in the newspaper and learned that interviews were being held in the hotel where he was staying. He got the best job of his life that day. God always uses our misfortunes for good as long as we trust Him. You will find the perfect job for you. I affirm it in Jesus' name.

I took this job while I was still living in Virginia.
I moved back here to Buffalo at my own expense. I was working 60 to 70+ hours a week building this market.
When Home Depot opened the sales market there was nothing in place, no installers for windows or siding. I have hired dozens of crews, some of them friends of mine. They simply don't pay the installers enough.
Since the attack on 9/11 workmans comp and liability insurance has quadroupled. I built the installation end of this market from nothing and to date we have installed over a million dollars worth of windows and siding since June 19.
My mistake was to help out a homeowner and allow him to remove the existing siding off his house, and have the installer put up new plywood. What I did was buy time for the company. It was a $15,000 job and they were threatening to cancel.
Had I not done what I did the company would have lost a $15,000 job. So needless to say I have no job.
The Lord will supply a new one for me and my family.
