I need some prayers. Don't worry, nothing serious

As most of you know, I work at the VA in Fort Worth, but my home is in Houston. I have been waiting for almost 5 years for an opening at the VA in Houston, and finally, the opportunity has presented itself. I have applied, and now I wait. All you who are God fearing, please say a prayer that I get the position in Houston. Thank you.

Good luck.

Who's to say you're not the best candidate for the position.

We reckon you probably are but we're all biased.

(I'll have a word with Ed anyway)

Thank you all! It would make a huge difference in my life if I could just get back home and finish my career at the VA there. I know a lot of people have applied for the position...
