I come to you for prayer

[Scott Tschirhart]

I rarely ask for anything for myself but I need prayer right now.

This is career related.

I have difficult decisions to make and I’m anxious and heartbroken that it has come to this.

Thanks in advance.

Scott

[Bill in Oregon]

Scott, I am so sorry. You have my prayers for wisdom -- and trust that what God wills will come to pass.

Prayers are going out and I'm stealing Bill's formatting because it sounds better than what I'd come up with on my own.

[wvfarrier]

Keep the Faith

[Drawdown]

X2 what Bill said already, God is in control, and anxiety in these times will come, but rest assured, WVFarrier put up the correct promise we have! Prayers for you, to see God's best for you!

[gamekeeper]

Stay strong Scott and don't do anything in haste.

[Streetstar]

Stay strong Scott and don't do anything in haste.

X2 and prayers up

[CowboyTutt]

As we say in the Eastern Catholic Church, I pray for you have discernment Scott. Sometimes He grants our wishes, and if he doesn't, there is usually a very good reason for it, and it will reveal itself at a much later date. Thanks for being here on the forum, you make it a better place my friend. May God speed you on your journey to where you belong.

[EG73]

You guys are classic traditional Americans and I love it.

May God guide your choices, have faith in his will even if it’s not what you wanted.

[Scott Tschirhart]

Thank you gentlemen. I’m still patiently waiting for the answer. Something will happen in the next few days.

Don’t worry, I’m trying to be very deliberate about this.

[Walt]

Scott, I hope you get this resolved soon and that it turns out to be a win/win situation. Tomorrow will be a new day.

[Woodtroll]

Prayers for wisdom in the decision-making process, for the best possible outcome, and for peace with the results.

[CowboyTutt]

Amen to that!!!!

Use cautious deliberation but be receptive to sudden divine insight.

I had a talk with my senior partner at a picnic table a few years back.

Kathy was having medical issues and I had told the Partners that I couldn’t leave her alone for two or three weeks to try a jury trial in El Paso. I needed to stay close to home but I was willing to do anything else.

I trusted him and I asked him what I lacked in his eyes after being a Partner in the firm for two years.

That’s one of those questions that you only ask those who you think have your best interest at heart. I made a mistake in judgement.

He said: “Your choice in life partners is holding you back.”

I was absolutely shocked and had no words to respond.

It was obvious that I was not dealing with what I thought I was.

[Ysabel Kid]

You are a better man than me, Scott. I don't think I could have resisted the instant urge to deck him.

[Walt]

Family has to take precedence over career; otherwise you are an empty shell.

[horsesoldier03]

It is so sad to see the lack of values in people that we think we know and have similar values. I have deal with a similar issue like this as well recently. Prayers sent that you can navigate this obstacle wisely. Regardless of the outcome, I think you are a man of good character and will make the right choices.

Scott,
I will pray for this man you have mentioned but in a totally different manner than what I will pray for you. Stay strong, because it is sad that one 'project' could influence a persons judgement over that length of time and under those circumstances. He lacks the ability to evaluate Total Performance and Dedication.

An aside support for you -- I offer a song that helped get me through several changes during my career. I am 'Only' referring to the words and rhythm of the 'refrain' -- as a inspirational uplifting. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UhLDA4Wr2GU Ignore that rest of the lyrics. They do not apply to what was at hand at the time. The important part is -- " Ain't nothing is going to break my stride. Nobody is going to slow me down. Oh No! I got to keep on moving."

Continue to truly Love 'Only' what is Real.

[Scott Tschirhart]

I probably over-shared here and if you think so, I apologize.

But this was a defining moment in my mind.

Fortunately, I’m expecting a new job opportunity this morning. If I can make the money work, I think it will be a great opportunity.

[1894cfan]

No worries! Hope things work out for you, for the better!

[Ysabel Kid]

Good luck Scott!

I decided when I started my career to not do the corporate rat race. I looked at all of our executives and noticed many were on their second or third marriages (from only focusing on their careers), and some were alcoholics. I'm married to Mrs. Y2K - not to my job or the company. I've always enabled the people reporting me to put family first. It's the only way to go.

[black river smith]

Good luck to you and only look back for what knowledge / experience you have gained in that position.

[Streetstar]

I probably over-shared here and if you think so, I apologize.

Nope - i've done it too - a lot of us have. I've not met many of you guys' in person but tend to believe most of us share similar values and feel like this place on the internet is a virtual campfire of sorts where we mostly talk about guns - but on occasion talk about life also when needed

Well said.
I hesitated making my most recent post thinking similar thoughts,
But paraphrasing what Doug wrote, this place is special for many reasons.
When my soon to be ex said that she wanted out because of my health issues, the first thing I said to her was that if things were different and she was going through something serious there was nothing that would keep me from making sure she was as comfortable and happy as possible.
You’re one of the good guys Scott, don’t let some mutant let you think otherwise!

I really wish that I had the presence of mind to tell him what I should have in that moment. It was a missed opportunity.

I’ve never seen myself as a coward but I certainly should have been better in this situation.

[jeepnik]

Most of us have had times where we could turn right or left. I don't believe that we are ever alone in making those decisions. Some test our wisdom, some our courage but all our faith. Hang in there and know that there's a reason.

There is a fine line between having to blow the bridge up ---- or having to just think about it for a bit and walk back in the other direction

[Bill in Oregon]

Scott, like others here I am completely shocked by what your "senior partner" said. I just can't imagine that kind of callous inhumanity. I sure hope the new job offer ends up being a perfect fit.

[Scott Tschirhart]

I’m fixing to tender my resignation. I accepted a new partner position in another firm this morning.

I’ve prayed on this enough now.

Thank you gentlemen for your kind thoughts, words and prayers.

[black river smith]

Good luck to you.

Major employment changes are never easy. Some are forced on you others you choose. The chosen ones are probably harder than the forced ones. Most folks go through this from time to time. And generally it works out. Keep us posted on how things go.

God speed on your new job, Scott.

[horsesoldier03]

Congratulations Scott. I am a firm believer that good things come to people that make the conscious decision to do right and follow their heart. As a minimum you and your wife will feel better knowing you can fully commit to this partnership.

[Woodsloafer2]

I firmly believe all things happen for reason. Hope this turns out to be a much better situation for you. Best wishes and karma will catch up to the person who made that awful statement to you.
