Who Has Hired You? - Page 2

I don't think I'm complaining & I didn't mean to say it's ALWAYS about who you know either. I meant to say that I feel like it's more of who you know than other things but not ALWAYS. & it isn't as simple as packing my bags & going, I have a family too. I can't just move because of a job that's probably just trying me out because I'm an 18 year old HS graduate. That makes NO sense. I'll find something, just as I did with American Eagle & make the most of it. By no means did I mean to make this to "complain" or "whine." Simply to see how many of you guys have gotten hired, if you are getting hours, how long you've had the job & so forth.

I agree with you, I wasn't implying or saying you were complaining or whining. I merely said complaining really gets you nowhere. And yeah some just cant pack up their things and skip town to find work, it's not that simple. I really hope you find something that works for you so you can live a close to normal life now. By the way I been working at wal mart for a few weeks now, forgot to mention it.

The immigration law firm with which I applied for Daca had offered me a job as a receptionist/Legal Assistant on the spot but had to wait til I actually got my work permit LOL. They kept their promise and I'm pretty happy. Learning a lot and it feels amazing to help people who are in the same position as me!

Did you tell them your DAP screen name?

AE is the worst company to work at, I have been their for 6 years and earning $8.90 an hour

So I got 30 hours this week.

CVS, I never wished for summer to be over sooner. I got hours (generally over 30, never under 25) but at 7.60 an hour with uncle sam taking 20% of my earnings is total bull.

The second I got DACA I applied for an IT position in my school (BYU). Started at 9.50/hr plus a .50-1.00 raise every semester. The most flexible work schedule I've ever had. I recommend you try your school if you're in one.

I got hired almost immediately by a major bio-tech company after I received the work permit. Starting at 70k..Thank god, my life has changed drastically !
