Can any psychic/sensitives here spare a minute? |
|
I feel really ridiculous asking like this, but a (small) job opportunity just came up for me. I don't want it. It sounds yucky, stressful, dangerous and doesn't pay anything significant. The only positive is that it's mine if I want it, which I don't. I don't want to post details for various reasons, and no, I can't give them to you in a PM (sorry). Could anyone who's available tell me if anything is coming through regarding whether or not I should take this one? There's the remote possibility that this job has potential to provide a better opportunity later, but the truth is--I'm not feeling anything special about it and the thought of taking it makes me a little ill.

1. I think you answered your own questions. Your gut feeling |

is telling you this job is not for you. Whenever I have ignored my gut feelings I have regretted it. They are never wrong. However, you might want to light a money candle and open your mind to whatever thoughts come your way while you meditate on it. Weigh the pros and cons while you meditate. Ask questions and look for answers to come from within. Ask yourself why the thought of the job makes you ill.
On an earthly plane maybe you should talk to whomever is the person who has offered you the job and ask exactly what it may offer you in the future if anything. Can you leave with no regrets if you do take the job as an interim job if something better comes along?

The question of whether or not to take it for the interim is where things get really sticky...it has weird hours that would kinda mess with my ability to seek out other jobs, and a friend offered it to me. I would feel horrible about taking it only to ditch it if something safer--with a decent salary--and more glamorous were to open up in the early fall. But I had resolved to talk to the woman who would be my direct supervisor about my responsibilities and the promotion ceiling before giving a firm yes; your suggestion just reminds me to think over all the parameters more carefully. Grrr.

it's hard to pick anything up at a distance but what I do is get yourself a piece of string and tie a weight to it, like a heavy old fashioned earing or a pull from a ceiling fan will also work. Then relax and hold the string in front of you with the hand you use to write with, then try to focus on the problem, what to do, (close your eyes for this) when you open your eyes, see if the weight is spinning how fast and whether it is clockwise, positive or counterclockwise negative, I do this sometimes when I can't make up my mind.

I'm actually leaning toward taking it right now, but have not made a final decision.

You is the source of your best info. You've already shared that with us. If you think you're sick of it now, wait until you've been at it awhile. Also, how do you feel about asking if it has any potential? ... nothing wrong with exploring what you don't know.

8. I haven't read all the responses yet .. |

But I would say, No. I agree with Cleita, post #1. Do not ignore gut feelings. Especially when they are screaming "NO". You may go against it because you see no other options. I have. And gotten beaten up at bit. Nothing fatal. But who knows what may have happened if I listened.
If you take the job, you may be delaying or advancing a lesson. Or it may not matter at all. You may just make yourself miserable until you find another way. Whatever the case, there will be something there you can take away and build with. Think inner wisdom.
Time is such a tricky thing. Decisions. This way or that. I've made split second decisions regretted later. And anguished, as you are, over others. They all turn out the same. A lesson.
You can't make a mistake whatever you decide.

I would listen to that small tiny voice that is screaming at you to refuse it. I had a situation a few years ago where I was reading for a company who had contracted me. I had a bad feeling while I was filling out the paperwork. I commented on my impressions to my mom, my fiance at the time, at almost anyone who would listen, it was a such a strong feeling. Guess what? Lo and behold, it was right. Everything that could go wrong.....DID!! In fact, I ended up being cheated out of my monies, to add insult to injury. Oh, karma can be a B*%$h ...she ended up going to jail for, among other things, embezzlement and tax fraud but I could have lived 14,000 years without dealing with that creep had I listened to my second sight. Listen to it, Girl. I don't feel that you'll either enjoy the job, the people you work with and for and there'll be a stress related issue with your stomach and head within 4 months. LISTEN TO YOUR GUT!! God put it there for a reason and if you ignore it, you'll live to regret it, trust me.
