Comment on Have you ever felt a imaginary switch click that changed the trajectory of your life?

I’ll preface by saying I have done some bad things I’m not proud of in life.

I was an failure relative to my peers and just never felt like I would progress, so I did things to people I am not proud of doing in times of need.

One of these came back to bite me when I started a new job at the same place as two people I’d wronged. Suffice to say I was recognised and one of them made a complaint.

So during my training, the last week, I was taken aside and confronted by HR and subsequently canned. I was canned for discrepancies in my application as they could hardly can me on hearsay.

Well, that spurred me to apply for a job, not my ideal job, at a better company. Which to cut this short basically enabled me to grow as a person, get a neurodivergent diagnosis with medication. Re-train and now I work in my dream field.

The moral is good things happen to bad people i guess.
