Ask HN: I Need to Talk to Someone
79 by nas1throway | 28 comments on Hacker News.
Laid off 6 months ago. Was on an H1-B visa. Moved to spouse’s dependent visa. I have just around year left on my H1-B and my previous employer was mid way through the PERM process when they laid me off. Most companies don’t want to hire me because of the delays in the processing of PERM these days since I have just a year left. And I just recently switched careers from construction to data. Feeling really hopeless and alone. My spouse has a good job, but this stress of not getting any work has been devastating to me. It took me around 8 months of job searching to find a role as a career switcher and now I’m back to square one in a bad market. I don’t have anybody I can talk to and just want to talk about my problems. I’m parked outside a Burger King parking lot in the car by myself and don’t have a clue on what I should do. Feeling hopeless.
