Personal Narrative: Why I Lost My Job In A Not-Profit Organization

The problem that I currently encounter is that I lost my job in a not-profit organization because, I was registered for 7 weeks training and I didn’t pass my license exam. During those for seven weeks I couldn’t concentrate because I was passing through a very stress situation. One the training was very intensive and I started school again the same time of the training. Two was looking for houses because my lease was going to be ending at the end of the training too, and school, the owner of the house was going to sell the house and I didn’t have enough time to find a house faster enough. I was trying to do the best I could with the little time I have. Unfortunately I didn’t pass the test and my score was 65% and the passing grade was supposed to be 80%. I was offered with a less pay salary doing transporting children to home visit, court and other activities. I know that the decision I make to resign was not the best decision because at this point I don’t have any income. I was very depressed because I have been working for not-profit organization for a long time and I know my job, but by going to that training I discount that
Florida law is not the same and that everything is different from New York. For instant, In New York workers are not allowed to drive with any client or children in your car. At the different Florida organization require you to take your client everywhere. For example, medical appointments, court visitation and office visitation. At this point of time I realize that probably was wrong for me to resign because after two weeks I didn’t find a job and is affecting me financial, emotionally and mentally. But, at the same time I motivate myself by remind me that I could and will have a job that I could utilize my professional still as a human services worker very soon. I just had to be patience and continue searching for job.
1. I decide to update my resume and I search for the a list of website job search
a. Indeed. Com
b. Careerbuilder.com
c. Idealist.com
d. Grassdoor
2. My second option is to study more and more register myself to take licensing test again next year and look for another job into I get ready to able to work in the field of Human services again.
I search and post my resume in each of those website. At this time I only had to way to see who will get interesting in my professional skills and believe I could be a good candidate for their organization. According to Puccio (2012) he stated that convergent thinking is by nature careful and selective. When it is time to make a decision, one needs to consider the real value and relevance of an option. I decide to resign my job because I wasn’t going to have time to search for another job because I was going to be driving every day and I wasn’t to have the chance to search for another job opportunity. I love to work but I love to be happy doing what I learned and know best which is be a human services worker, working to achieve my ideas of helping those families in trouble all the time. According to (Runco, Okuda, & Thurston, 1991; Wallach & Kogan, 1965).
They stated that most often divergent thinking test are scored for ideational fluency of a total numbers of ideas. Creativity and flexibility is influence by test scored test and the unique or unusual ideas of number categories. Also performance on divergent thinking task is impact by the test setting. One way of improve our knowledge and creativity is by taking training to expand ourselves is been proving. I had learned a lot through that practices myself in my pass employments. But at this point of time, I fail for the massive of stressful and task that I was assign to me at the time same. This teach me a big lesson to plan according to my time and dedication. Stress is not a friendly behavior to be successful and bring our creativity be part of our day to day
task.
