I suppose you could say this week was a strange one. spent most of monday night and tuesday morning in er with chest pain. no reason found heart fine. I think it was the stress of thinking that my job was going be outsourced. I have worked ther for 34 years. my husband died last year. and left me with a home that was falling apart so I refinanced for 30 yrs. new roof and heater air conditioner. now not sure I could pay the payments. yet by the weeks end things changed to knowing that we will not lose our jobs thanks to my boss of ten years turned in her termination letter. Two board members and ceo on conferance call . put it in writing if she would stay they would work with us all to keep our jobs. so mayby that crisis is over. My goal to get in shape went out the window. the pain incresing in my body from my RA. So im just shocked my boss would go to bat for us. oh I guess your wondering why after 34 years im not the boss. I started out as nurse aide then restorive aide. hurt my back spent 1 year in the xray dept as clerk .only part time . then went to billing to file claims. now full time biller. it is a set down job. that is good with my knees. yet get stiff after I set long time.the lord says jeremiah: 29:11 I know the plans I have for you plans /plans to prosper you not to harm you plans to give you hope and a future. I depend on his words to get me through the tough times .

I am so glad to hearv that you will not lose your job. That must be a big relief. Anxiety symptoms feel like chest pain and you are probably right with the stress of thinking you would not have a job probably caused the pain.
I am a registered nurse and I am also doing a less physical part cause my knees hurt. I am doing home health now cause I don't have to run around as much. Like you said though sitting makes the knees stiff so really there is no perfect job. Hugs, Inga
