Thank you so much for being patient with me. I AM DONE COMPLAINING. The Lord is putting food on my table and giving me an opportunity to grow in my faith. He has warned us about these circumstances and I need to react differently no matter how hard it is. Only then can I grow closer to Him. Just this morning they screwed me again when I was trying to help my sister who is in need. I am sorry that I vented so much and I appreciate the fellowship and advice.

nah.. venting is ok.. Everyone experienced this type of nonsense sooner or later.

I say "Life is too short to be little."
Once you get a better job, say good bye to your current place. Why work in a place that is hostile to you and your family?
In the mean time, just try to not loose your cool. a'ight! :) God bless u.

Thank you all again for your kindness. I listened to a good message about injustice and suffering and feel like such a HUUUGE loser now. Just as we are healed through Jesus' wounds, God takes notice of all our troubles and especially our responses. I don't know why I have to be such a bitter complaining clown, I really am trying so hard to be nice. In any case you are right, I am all too familiar with financial strain and unemployment and I should be and in my heart I truly am grateful for a decent living in a relaxed atmosphere with simply some lost, worldly people and their behaviors which I can respond to in different ways. We all fall and have our weaknesses, mine are self-control, anger, and judging / hating others. I am so sorry. Please pray for me. I need this demon OUT. I really want to heal and stop hurting everyone around me. I know God is not pleased. I am very ashamed of myself, though I know and rejoice that I am forgiven.

as far as stop hating others and being in more control of yourself, i am in total agreement with you. And, i am all for humility in Christians. But, being a christian does not mean being weak when people stepped all over you. There is a huge difference between being humble and being ignorant of injustice.

Right now the best thing to do is to work in that place and endure the sufferings while looking for better jobs out there if at all possible.
Seriously, why lock yourself in a hostile environment?
You have nothing to be ashamed of... Pray to God so He can give you wisdom how to handle the situations better.
