I was working for Select Portfolio Servicing for almost 5 years. I was offered a position for another company at $6.50/hour more than what i was making. I felt like I just couldn’t turn down the opportunity. The job was a new part of the mortgage process that I had not yet learned. However I was there for less than 6 months when interest rates went up and the company laid off half their staff in a matter of weeks. I was unemployed once again.
It only took me 2 months to find another position. I work in a whole new industry and I am struggling with the relaxed atmosphere. I know I know. It is a sickness that comes with living the high stress, crazy busy world of Mortgage Origination & Servicing.
I struggle every day wondering if I made the right decision to get out of the mortgage world. I know change is hard, especially for me. I have only been here almost 2 months. But I feel like I am wasting my talents and knowledge. I just don’t know what the right thing to do is…
I also am struggling with a co-worker. This person is very condescending and sometimes says some things that just rub me the wrong way. This person is supposed to be training me. I asked for help with something and I was told that it wasn’t their job anymore that it was on me. Also anytime I ask a question this person gets frustrated. It makes me not want to ask any questions or ask for help.
I will just keep applying for positions that I want to work in at SPS and see what happens. I have to trust GOD will open and close the doors that are meant for me.
