What is your major/what is your degree in,

Computer Science and Masters in business. Each time I've dared to think about the future in those fields, my dreams have been crushed so I'd rather not think too much about them right now since I don't qualify for DACA. I'm sure the 25 year old woman with the 3 kids and a GED she just now thought about getting will be of better value to this country than myself.

Passive Aggressiveness aside, I would give myself 2 years to get on my feet after I get a work permit/green card. The first year would be to transition from what I do now since I can't just spit in the face of those who helped me and the other year would be to get settled in to the industry. I have many friends who can help me get my foot in the door and I have a lot of unique skills but the reality is, I will be starting at the bottom in my 40's by the time I get any sort of work permit.
