What's your current job situation? I'm currently working on getting a promotion as a Supply Chain Coordinator at a hospital?

Electric propulsion - Controls engineer at an automaker

Currently trying to get myself into doing more embedded software at my current job in hopes to gain more skill

Software Developer for the next 2 years at least lol

Pharmacist in training

I remember there was a thread on this already.

PhD student in STEM field. Will graduate at the end of August and go on to do a postdoc. Plan to stay in academia with the hope of running my own lab one day.

Process operator in a chemical plant. I got an associates degree in process technology, an internship, a scholarship, and i landed a job in manufacturing industrial gasses paying 25 an hour (this pay is considered kinda low in this industry)

work in financial services. managerial position now

Audit Manager

Account Manager at my company. I do online security. I focus on our Latin American region, working with industry leaders in Mexico, Argentina, Chile, Peru, Colombia, and Brazil. I was recently promoted to this role. Previously, within the company, I had dedicated accounts with fortunate 500 companies in the Bay Area, I'm sure you guys can figure out which ones without me stating the names.

My colleague works in our Miami office, so I have the opportunity to travel there and also visit our partners in Latin America...unfortunately I cannot travel there just yet until I get legalized. Pretty much the company covers lodging, flights, and I am given an allowance daily for food. I've only traveled to our offices in the States. I am fortunate to have this role and I worked my ass to get here.

I get close to two months of PTO and the company pays maternity/paternity leave, if I am in the position in the near future.

If shit hits the fan, I'd take my fiancee and live in Latin America. My parents own a house in Mexico and her family has a couple of homes in Chile. Another plan is to work in our office in Spain and get Spanish citizenship there.

The future is unwritten.


I am glad to see many dreamers thriving, despite the shit that has been going on...we're going to be alright.
