I found this job selling magazines and children's books door-to-door. Well it was more like scamming people to buy these fake magazines and either you got money right then or later that day, either way it was stealing. I was terrible at it, I mean, I can sell stuff. But, straight out scamming? For some reason I could live my life as a hypocrite and lie to the people that mattered, but I couldn't scam some old lady for her money.
While I was with this job, we smoked weed daily, got drunk nightly and everyone was hookin' up. Gladly I wasn't there long enough to follow that suit.
Every now and then I would call my family and check-in. But there was this one time I called my mom and she said "thank God you called, I had a terrible dream last night about you; please come home!!!" That's all she had to say, because my mom has that kinda influence. So, I gathered my last paycheck and skipped outta that job. While I was on the bus back to Texas from Chicago, God met me as clear as day and said to me " "I'm going to give you a chance to turn your life around when you get home and if you do so, i will bless you, because you are my son."
So, when I got home my mom told me about a job at a Christian camp in Southern California at Palomar Mountain. I told God "if you are for real then help me get this job, I will not lie on my application or resume, nor will i lie in my interviews". I didn't doubt God and I held up my part of the bargain...
