I have been out of work for about four months now. CDCR has a policy that no inmate can remain in an office job for longer than two years, not the same job that is. It has to do with us getting too comfortable around free staff. Well, I have been trying to get back into the education field and have interviewed twice. I was just notified that I got a job, a very good job, with Bowen in education. He is a true educator and I really hope the office assignment comes through. The problem is that as he was making up his mind to hire me, inmate assignment assigned me to a porter job in the housing unit!
I am going to see Bowen in about an hour to explain that I still wish to work for him and I hope he can arrange things so I can. It is my hope that this second job in education field will assist me in maintaining a position in the field, simply rotating from one class to another as the two year limits come into play.
I am now also reclaiming my childhood dream of becoming a writer! I am having the time of my life and God has confirmed this path for me in many small ways, and some rather blatant ones. :) A down side to that is that I have to take a few English courses to really up my game, even though I have already completed all degree requirements at the JC level.
I also had to come to the place where I stepped out of denial. The wish to be an all forgiving, gentle human being is present within me, but I lack that ability when dealing with people of a sort. That is a flaw and one that I must work on.
The ministry I am putting together, Hospice Care called "No Conditions" is beginning to take up a lot of time on my schedule.
When it rains it pours! Peace to you and yours. russ
