Dark Times

These times are dark times for me. Just this morning, I was about to be accepted as a medical technologist at Doha Clinic Hospital after a week of training to different sections in the laboratory. I tried my best not only to win my supervisors but also to do good in every task assigned to me. I even started to love the laboratory, the staff and the work itself. Everything runs smooth not until I was called by Doc Selim to visit her office to discuss important things to me.

She told me that after my papers have been verified, they found out that I cant stay on the hospital because I only have a year and 2 months of post graduate working experience. I insisted that I had 2 years and 2 months of working experience because of my one-year internship training before graduation and since I work as a medtech though an intern, it should be counted as a hospital experince. Even though how hard i tried to explain my part, she told me she cant keep me, though I did a good job during my training, because hospital protocols needs to be followed.

Depressed and ashamed, I pack my things and bid goodbye to my "supposed co-workers".

Tomorrow is another day and would try my luck as I roam around the city in search for a job, I am taking these things in a positive light, I know I belong somewhere. May God lead me the way  . ..
