Sujeet accepted a job offer yesterday from a great company in downtown Tampa. He was already working elsewhere, for a year and 6 months, but was not very happy with his job for several reasons. The new job has higher salary, and awesome benefits like 4 weeks PTO/year! :o I am very happy for him. He is also happy. He had been looking for a new job for about 3 months before this opportunity came along.

He's really settled here in the US, and I am proud of him for doing so much, in less than 2 years after moving here! Sept 2 he will have been here 2 years.

I hope it also encourages others who will be moving here soon. Sure he misses his family, and misses stepping outside his flat to get a yummy Indian snack sold by street vendors. But overall, he has blended here very well. India is much different than the US, yet he still has been able to feel at home here. He is hardly ever around other Indians and has gotten the full American experience. :P Though I wish he could have some Indian friends sometimes, but he never says that, I just think it. At his new job, one of his bosses is from India so that's cool, and he already likes Sujeet a lot.

Just happy for him! :D:D:D

Awesome news Stina - am pleased for both of you (F)

Paul and I met on the Bazaar on the 14th January (he joined my progressive rock forum that day)

July 3rd he flew to England to meet me

We fell in love while he drove all over the place coz I cannot read maps (we were supposed to go to Ingleton - but touched Darlington 4 times, Pierce Bridge 6 times, Scotch Corner twice and Bernard Castle twice and we never did make it to Ingleton)

It has been so long and so much has happened in between...

Arrived in Houston on October 29th 2006

Married 17th November 2006

Lost my father 8th January 2007 (all dates are a blur after this)

Conditional Green Card dated 24th October 2007

Just thought I'd add a sort of timelime of events, for those who will be moving here soon, to maybe know what to expect. Of course where you live with make a difference. In our small city there are really no jobs for his career field. But we live about an hour from Tampa, where there are opportunities for his line of work.

-He moved here Sept 2 (on K1)

-Got EAD mid December

-Started first job Feb 1, about 5 months after moving here
