You know, there actually are some Americans that can read Spanish. Thanks for your continued Anti-Americanism. You should wish your economy was in as good shape as ours, and racism is relatively rare compared to numerous other places. Thanks again.
You know, I'm not saying this is direct racism, but it make me feel really unwanted. I moved to some countries and never felt like now. I don't think that this level of control is good for us (the ones who want to work in the usa). Once I'll get there, I will not thinking, hey thanks for the oportunity, I would rathe think, hey, thanks for making my life harder. But I can understand your (americans) frustration. Btw, I don't think racism is rare in the us, it is a fact and it is due, in part, to the massive illegal immigration. Put yourself in my pants and try to feel it as I do. Ask yourself how hard it is to go living in an other continent alone, and not even feeling wanted there, what feeling could it create once you finnaly get on destination?

¿Pero, por qué quieres usted ir para los Estados Unidos? Hay tantas opciones mejores. Por ejemplo: solo para países que hablan inglês puedes escojer Australia, Canadá y Inglaterra; todos opciones muy mejores que los E.U. No creo que los E.U. sea una buena opción: la economia está en crisis, las dificuldades de inmigración son muchas y hay mucho racismo.

Cada uno evalua cuales considera sean sus mejores opciones. Me parece muy bien que a ti no te interese, la cosa es que a mi si lamentablemente.

You know, I've taken lightheartedly many insults against my country by some Americans (oakman, despeir, etc). All of them much worse than what I say. But, as in the Armenian/Russian/Jewish/Arab proverb: "the dogs bark but the caravan goes on". There is no country without faults or skeletons in the closet. And no country is defined just by these faults.

Just remember that all of that "give us your tired, your poor, your huddled masses" isn't actually a legally binding obligation on our part.

too bad, sorry :/ So you say that it is not as difficult to be hired coming from other countries as I feel it is? The process is simple then I seek for jobs, send my cv, they call, email whatever me, and I they like it as any other job theyll possibly schedule an onsite interview? Well, if it is as 'simple' it could be plausible. What bothers me is the fact that usa is the world's leading country, this involves dealing with the consequences, this is one, they talk a lot about acceptance, and racism, etc. And this is really making me feel as I'm not really wanted. And the fact that my employer has part of my balls in his hands is annoying too. I understand why an undecudated, violent and mentally disturbed person is not really wanted there, but I am not like that, and they make me feel like shit. And an other thing is that I can't leave when they tell me, I have some dates as any person would have, it will be hard to find a company that accepts me and when I can. What I wanted is doing what I could do in almost all countries, go there, and get a job, end of story, no more complications. I am sure there is a valid reason on the other side, but hey, I'm on my side. I will try to contact some companies and see what happens. Thanks for the info!

What does this have to do with racism or acceptance? I'll agree that our immigration policy has some issues, but you seem to feel that our Gov't should be flying you in, giving you first pick of any available jobs, and then letting you quit and bum around if you don't get on with your employer. How is that fair to... well, anyone?

Hello, I just called the american embassy to ask what I need to get a Visa (don't know exactly which one, H1B I think), and they told me the only way I could get a Visa is by actually having a employer filling some forms which is a sort of promise that he will hire me without even having met me, this is ridiculous, isnt't it? Further more I read that the visa duration depends directly on your works, meaning that if you get fired, usa kicks you out, quite convenient if it is true. My question is is this true? Is this the only way to work in the USA for foreigners? If it is it's ironic because it's like saying yeah, we accept legal immigration but in the real world it is almost impossible, who will hire a person without even meet? You have to be insane... Anyway, I wondered if any of you knew a way I could go to the USA legally and seek for a job once there. Maybe because I work in the IT field it could be easier than if I was a sausage dealer. Thanks in advance.
Procedure: * Arrange with Mexican embassy passport to Mexico. Pay the appropriate bribes (a little poking around you will find out who to pay off) * Fly into Mexico * Hire a "mule" to take you across the border. * Once across the border get a job. Good chance you don't need papers if your fee is low enough. Heck you can even vote! * If you lose your job you can get food stamps (see previous posts in the soap box) .... Regretfully, I started this post tongue n' cheek... but darn.. it's the freak'n truth;

I just sort of criticized illegal and massive immigration so I don't get your comment. I want to go to work, as you, as others, not less, who knows, maybe more. Instead of an advice on how to proceed, what I get are just patriotic comments like "The entrace to the us is a privilege" "obligation on our part", that's cool, it doesn't really help, and it sounds racist. I think it's all about what reality you live in. Anyway, thanks for your comment!

Your taking part of what I said out of context. I don't pretend that, I already told it. What I was referring to with "this involves dealing with the consequences, this is one" is the fact that people prefer going to work to the US than Tombouctou. Not that I should be waiting for American Airlines picking me up when I want. But yes I pretend at least that you allow me come, stay some time to look for an appartment, re arrange my life, etc, and seek for a job at the same time. I don't have to explain how hard it will be to find one from outside right? And then what, where do I sleep? I don't know the city, do you understand what I pretend? Just some time, don't treat me as a dominican coming to enter a gang or anything you may be imaginating. How is that fair to me that you put me in the situation of getting all the risks? You have to cooperate a little, because if I don't quit and boom around as you say but I work hard and better (hypotetical before I get flamed..) it is good for your country. So what's fair? Do you think it's fair in those conditions that my Visa depends almost directly on my employer? And another thing, I know 1 person in those circunstamces, they get the salary they should get, and then, under the table she HAVE to return some cash to the employer so he doesn't fire her. It may seem to you that I pretend more than I do, but it seems to me that you idealise more than you should. But thanks for the comment.

How can you vote without citizenship? Why are you making a parallelism of that with a professional? It's like you tell me, I want to go to your country to work, I'm an architect and I answer yeah, come in, you can sell drugs here. So far, all I get is resistence.

Generally, racist remarks include something at least vaguely related to race. Usually.

I read a lot of what you wrote, and responded with my impression of it. If my impression is wrong, then there's a pretty good chance you're not communicating your point effectively.

So what? If more people prefer to work for Google than SCO, will you call Google racist for not hiring all applicants? It's supply and demand, my friend - where demand exceeds supply, then the suppliers get to be more choosy.

The same situation applies to me if i want to work somewhere that i don't live. I have to pay my way there, pay for lodgings, pay local taxes, etc., comply with local laws and regulations, and spend time and effort looking for work, all without any guarantee that i'll find work. If i wanted to work abroad, i'd have additional regulations to comply with and fees to pay before i'd even get the chance; that's just the nature of the beast.

You can come over on a travel/vacation visa. You can't work, though i suppose you could learn about the area where you wanted to work, familiarize yourself with employers, etc. But you seem rather stuck on H1B visas. Most anyone here can tell you, they're a mess all around - for the employee, they're put at the mercy of an unscrupulous employer in a very unsatisfactory way, while native coworkers may find that they've had their pay or jobs cut to favor cheaper and more easily controlled immigrants. You think it sucks shouldering the risk of traveling to the US - how about paying your way through school only to find that local employers won't hire you because they've decide

Forgive? I didn't even remember that! As I said before, the dogs bark and the caravan goes on. Oh, BTW, what did you say about it?
