and here i thought things were all calm and good

i thought i was at a place where i was just going to have to learn my job. that would be my only worry. now, i know i should never worry, because GOD is in control, but, you know.
our nursing home was just sold. supposedly we'll all be keeping our jobs and pay rate, but we all have to reapply. however, i already know of one woman (my officemate) who will be losing her job. thankfully she works three days a week at our sister facility, but she makes too much and the new owner won't pay it for the two days she works at our place. mostly, though, i do think people are safe. it's the first place he's ever owned (he's seriously like 25 or 26 - he graduated college in '09), and he really wants the transition to go smoothly.
however, i'm brand new to my position with no experience or schooling.
there are a bazillion other things to take into consideration (my big concern being my vacation [if i keep my job] (also, the fact that i'll never seen good-looking maintenance guy again cuz he actually works for our sister facility), my mom's being her retirement, everyone's being benefits), but the other specific prayer request i'm going to mention right now is for our social worker. for one thing, people in management aren't necessarily safe, and she'd be considered management. but mostly, we have no idea what our health insurance situation is going to be, and she's dying of lung cancer. in february she was given 3-9 months to live. tomorrow she goes in for chemo, and they'll be checking to see if the chemo and radiation have actually been doing anything. with due cause, she's a wreck. she's single, with no siblings or parents or cousins or anything. thankfully, though, she does have a great network of friends. i don't know what her spiritual status is. i believe her background is lutheran, but she has said she can't pray outside of church. so please, if you could pray for her, it would be much appreciated.
