To all of you folks renewing, I cannot stress it enough that saving money is very important. In October my work permit expired, and my job fired me. Somehow, I had been feeling there was something wrong with this renewal. I saved money, and lived really really tight it was a new job too. I made it past probation period then BAM. They let me go. Yeah it hurts when they terminate you. Just remember you are not the first, or last dreamer to go through that. So while you guys are still working save up all you can. I met with HR today, and after a lengthy process I'm finally going back to work Monday. I was out of my job from October up until now. (I do have a part time right now 3 weeks I'm 20 hours a week).
