I was working a shitty job that wouldn't give me more hours, I was in debt from University and could barely afford rent, let alone another semester of school. The company changed their attendance policy and immediately put me on final warning(1 minute late = fired) without any previous discussion. I applied at a few places to no avail.
I sent a resume to one of the most selective tech support call centers in the city on a whim. They called be back later that week saying they were having a job fair next Tuesday. I went, and some of my previous co-workers were managers there doing interviews. I was hired on the spot, and now I make 33% more per hour, with full-time hours, and I don't have to work evenings and weekends. I can pay off my student debt, and save enough money to finish a semester next year and get into the co-op program to finish my degree!
Praise Jaysus!

Dotard I just thought that I would add the story to contrast the one that did not require god. But at the same time this illustrates that what most people interpret as answered prayers are really everyday coincidences.
Regarding the curse my friend you just made me the next Al Bundy I love that show. And to answer your question leo yes, I felt like an ass afterwards lol.
