Stressful, hectic, tired. These 3 words summed up the feelings at work in the last 2 weeks, given the volatility in the FX market. The positive side to it is that our revenue run rate is now ahead of budget. I will be a very happy woman at work if not for the recent massive hiring of the bankers from another rival bank. Talks of huge 2 yr guarantees for these guys meant that there will likely be not much left in the bonus pool for us next year. To rub salt into the wound, my role maybe be adjusted, to make way for one of the new hires, who happened to a " friend" that has not contacted me regarding her move to my bank. In the worst case scenario, my job may even be at risk. My hope of securing a new job before their arrival is looking bleak, given the uncertain economic environment, and most banks have froze hiring for the year. I am praying daily for guidance and wisdom. I have been blessed tremendously during my 15 yr banking career and I am sure God will have his plans for me. I need to be patient and faithful and here is one of my favourite verses from Proverbs that reminds me of that.
5 Trust in the LORD with all your heart
and lean not on your own understanding;
6 in all your ways acknowledge him,
and he will make your paths straight.
