My last year at
my full time job, I noticed within myself, that in spite of the negativity and
insecurity I was sensing around me, I was calm and just going with the flow.
Eventhough I was afraid, I still stayed calm and did my job. Usually in
negative situations, I stop doing my best and react like everybody else. This
time round I just stayed calm and did my best..
My last year at
work my work mates and me were sensing a lot of uneasiness amongst managers. Our IT
department which I was a member, knew that after we finish this project that
the IT department would be outsource off shore. We were working on the last
project and we were working as a team to get it done. It became political, due
the management not giving clear specs to the off shore company, deadline were
not met and the project going live was delayed.
The IT managers were in trouble
and a decision was made to start redundancy, and remove one section of the IT
team. It was my section. There was 7 of us, only 2 were to stay on. The decision of stays would be done by tests.
Most of us were worked more than 10 years at APRAAMCOS and it was upsetting. The
whole department was upset, including me and morale was low.
It took 3
months for the redundancy to happen. Using the Aura Soma bottle 57 (Pallas
Athena : Pink over Blue), I was able to handle the crisis at work with grace
and optimism. I intuitively knew that I
would be leaving. Using the Aura Soma Pallas Athena, I was able to accept what
was happening and support my other team members.
I was concern
with one lady in particular, Jeny, an immigrant, a widow and a single mum. Her
first job was her current job. She was
scare. I kept assuring her that she was ok. In fact she was ok. When she kept the job, I assured her she had
nothing to feel guilty about. Through this crisis right up till today we have
become good friends.
The Pallas
Athena bottle help me stay centred, help me see that it was time to move on. It
was now time to re-invent myself.
During the
redundancy crisis me, Jeny and another lady Lee
would meet once a week after work for coffee to motivate each other to
stay positive, as the department was
negative. IT department was demorolise.
When it was announce who staying and was leaving
there calmness, acceptance and a liitle anger. In the department as a whole.
I was relieve
to hear that Jeny would stay. I was sad to hear that I was leaving, after 15
years working there, but I handle the situation with grace and compassion.
I was able to
be the light to the other co-workers who were redundant and I was able to help
with process of discouraging guilt for
those who stayed.
I
am a work in progress. I still use Aura Soma. They help me grow
