Today, I passed my behind the wheel driving test, and got my first job

In less than 2 1/2 months, I managed to get my EAD, SSN, CA ID, CA Permit, CA DL, and my first job. Get moving and don't let this great opportunity pass!

Good luck to all!
Congratz.
I'm also excited for myself. I have an interview this Saturday at Macy's. This is my first job interview ever. I've never had a "legal" job before. I look forward to my first paycheck. I might frame my first paycheck lol.

Congrats!! Glad everything is working out so great for you! I'll hopefully be in your boat by the end of this month. I'm scared to take my driving test because I've never driven before!

All places I've ever been to have asked for one.

That sounds good! I am happy for you! Good luck on your first day!

Doing what? If I may ask. You do not have to answer.

Yeah they do! I actually should have taken the test on October 25th but they didn't let me because my dad's car has a cracked windshield which isn't even that bad. I honestly don't know, I think as long as your mirrors are adjusted and they won't fall off when you're driving you should be fine

Haha.

Just messing. Well, I shouldn't have said age. I should have said my fellow documented peers are spoiled and want jobs that exceed their expectations. I believe there is no shame in any work.

PS: 20.

So true about citizens they want to be CEOs from the get go. I have a cousin that was born here and he straight out told me that could get ANY job he wanted just cuz he had his papers. I told him to calm the f*ck down and stop hating on us undocumented.

Its funny. Its because of their citizenship that people take things for granted. I have seen it time and time again. All of a sudden, time passes and they are playing catch up. I do not really mind, it doesn't concern me or affect my life. I will use this opportunity to open many doors! It sounds like everyone in this thread is doing just the same!
