The place where I work is very unethical and is asking us to push products on customers that they don't want or need. The stress has been so much that I have had chronic migraines and have had to go on unpaid medical leave. The migraines have decreased significantly but as the time draws near for me to return to my job, my anxiety and migraines have returned. I used to enjoy the job when it was strictly customer service. I have applied for other jobs, but haven't found one yet. Please pray for me to find a new job where I can help people.
Dear Heavenly Father, perhaps I should be grateful just to have a job in today's economy, but I believe what I am being asked to do is unethical and immoral. Please dear Lord, find me a new job where I can use the skills You have given me. I ask this in Your Son's precious Name. Amen.

I'm praying you find something you can love doing as well.
Any job-friends? People you can ask for tips from as to how to enjoy doing that selling? You may be the only one there who gets headaches, but maybe there's others there that have got some coping strategies? If you are not aiming to be there longer than you have to, maybe they'd team up with you, and you could do the friendly part, and your friend could be the 'closer'? Then instead of Cat, why ain't you selling anything, well I get headaches you could say well, I've teamed up with Dog, and I get them listening, then explain Dog is much more familiar with our current product line, and let Dog close on the opportunity because I find this unethical and I get headaches trying to carry it all myself. Every little bit helps, right? Plus, Dog just barks at everyone until it's okay and the people are friendly. That's where I come in and get them listening and understanding we want to save them a trip back here if we can... .
(stepping off this soapbox) Whew! Sorry about that.

Dear Lord,
Please answer Catlass' prayers to use her gifts and talents in ways that are in alignment with Your plan for her life. Please give her the desires of her heart. As she waits on You, please give her patience and health, and protect her from anxiety and mental exhaustion that can have repercussions for years. Lord, please give her opportunities to be a witness in the midst of this. If it is Your will, give her the words to stand up against oppression, and fearlessly insist upon treating customers with respect, no matter the personal cost. I don't know if that's what You want, but if it's so, please give her the words, the strength, the knowledge that she is not alone.
Please let her know, clearly, that when she is at work, You are right there, and help her to work as though you are the boss looking over her shoulder, to do your will in the midst of all this.
In Jesus name ...
Amen

Father,
Thank you for the sense of ethics that CatLass has. We ask in Jesus Christ's name that you look on CatLass with your favor, giving one blessing after another regarding solutions on her job. If it is best that she find another job, help her to find one that is honest and moral. Thank you for all that you will do. Amen.
