I need to give a testimony, the
meeting I just came from brought this back to me. Last year this time I was a
mess, was torn, I was simply emotional, last year this time, my poor friends
had to put up with me always in tears, always whining, always complaining about
what the next day held for me, last year this time, I wanted to quit my job, I
wanted to go home and just sit and do nothing coz that woud have been far
better than going to work and experience another day there. Last year this time
I was told I was INCOMPETENT, not
once, not twice, many times, and I was beginning to feel incompetent. I had
worked at that job for some 5 years, on the 5th year, I was told I was INCOMPETENT, yes it got to a point
where, all you had to ask me was "how was work" and tears would flow
from me, it got to a point where I couldn't call my parents anymore because I
would fear that dreaded question from my dad "how was work" and I
wouldn't be able to fake my emotions from him and yet I didn't want to worry
them, it got to a point where my husband, agreed to my suggestion that I should
quit work, he is the one who called my parents to break the news that Kwesi
doesn't want to speak to you because she is a wreck, and the response from my
father was, "if you are not happy at work, just leave, you will find
another job", and quit I did..........................
Fast forward to today, today I
was sitting in a meeting at head office, where a previous audit report was
being discussed with some stakeholders some who I don't know, anyway, as our
part concluded and my GM and I were standing up to excuse ourselves from the
meeting, the Internal auditor requested to speak, he commended the recruitment
of the current accountant who according to him has and is visibly turning
around the department from what he knows it to be, he commended the great work
he has witnessed, bla bla bla bla, then external auditor too agreed with
internal auditor and gave his testimony, then my GM too put in a few words
agreeing with previous 2 speakers, then the MD, by the way the MD is the one
who heads the head office, alluded to the changes he has seen etc etc etc, the
MD who does not even work with me to see what I try to do........... The irony
of all this was that, the person chairing the meeting knows me, knows what hell
I went thru in my previous job, I am imagining how proud he felt of me at that
point much as he could not declare anything............ I cannot describe how I
feel right now, no amount of money can bring that feeling of acknowledgement
that I feel right now, When God shows up He indeed shows off........... I am
beyond content at this point, right here, right now, I am truly happy. #MyTestimony
