The Vent

[Cassie 8]

Okay, come on now. You can't just comment and not provide a link.

The one I am talking about (and assuming Kathryn is talking about) is here:

http://www.visajourney.com/forums/index.ph...764&st=1020

starting on page 69. post 1031. and it goes on.

Grrrrrrrrrr. What a jackass.

Oh, and this....

Now...a previous poster commented about exorbitant costs and how many other developed countries process immigrants at little or no cost. Well thats just grand! But the real question is, why isn't the U.S. citizen spouse emigrating to the foreign spouse's country? Seems like it would be easier and lot less stressful given that the developed country's is so immigration-friendly, no? The fact is that your spouses all wanted to come here to live and not the other way around. I think that says a lot about the good ol' U.S.A. Yes, things take longer, but here in the States we run a lot more security checks on any prospective immigrant (and rightly so) than any other country.

Well, this just boils my blood. What an idiot. Yes, we all came here because the US is the best country on the planet. What an arrogant and moronic thing to say.

Nice, hey? It's a wonder I have a tongue left from biting it so hard the last couple of days!

I can imagine. I am very proud of you, Cassie. I cannot say I would do the same.

BTW, Cassie.... I meant to say that I am sorry to hear your husband has been laid off. But one thing that I have noticed about disappointments is that they usually open the door to something better. But, regardless, I am sending good vibes your way to speed things along.

THAT is freaking AWESOME! I hope they were giving him a good severance package from his last position! I love how things like this work out perfectly!

Severance package :rofl: You optimist! (Long story, suffice it to say we are glad to be done with this company!)

But our medical insurance will be covered for the rest of the month (I guess that's the severance package!) , and then new job will pick it up. So my mind can rest easy on that issue.

Seriously though, I'm exhausted by the roller coaster of emotions I've been on today! Thanks for the good thoughts.

Congratulations on the new job! That is great. He shouldn't have any problems with the stamp - that is actually one of the items listed in the I-9 form for new employees. It is the NOA letter that isn't listed that is really causing problems. So, in a way, he is even better off with the stamp than with the extension letter. Good to know something is working for the best, isn't it? I go and get my stamp tomorrow - and glad that I won't have to fight with the Driver's License office to get my Driver's License renewed with the NOA as well. Now, if they would just hurry up and get the I-751s processed!

He's the USC, he doesn't have to worry about any stamp. I, on the other hand, will be going to get mine in two weeks.

Day 191?!?!?!?

Does that suffice?

[L_n_O 3]

I had a huge mental vent yesterday

I'm a verizon wireless customer and my phone sucks!

It's the LG VX8500.

I've already traded it twice and each new phone I get in this model sucks for another reason.

1) Battery started dying in one day of NO USE

2) Mid call, my phone would cut and and I wouldn't hear what the person was saying on the line for like 20-30 seconds

And now, the latest one I got was a werid error message about some backup assistant and the camera freezing

So, 2 days ago, I call CSR, and tell them I'm tired of trying to get this phone to work and would like to switch to another one entirely

They say sure as long as it's something less than or equal $169.99

Yesterday I go to my Verizon Wireless store to pick out a new phone and the woman at the counter was first off, A B!TCH!

She just came off irritated at the fact of having to be there, that was needed to talk to her etc

Then she reads the note on my file where it shows that I talked to CSR the day before and I got approved to do this (cuz apparently, you can't change models)

Then she says that it doesn't matter what we get told, she knows that we can't get what we came there for. THen she calls a co-worker to ask her for her opinion, and the co-worker says, "well, it got approved, so go ahead"

Then she goes to the back all pissed off, comes back and says her manager says NO.

then continues to give me attitude so I storm off.

I call verizon again, tell them what happened, and they are upgrading my phone and I should get it in a few days.

I HATE THAT WOMAN

Day 191?!?!?!?

Does that suffice?

It would if it was bolded and in bigger size. Kidding.

[MissStacey 1]

Sigh.

The flight my mom and sister were supposed to be on this a.m. was canceled. Some type of problem with a battery that needed to be recharged. They sat and waited in the Edmonton airport for 4 hours until they could find out what other flight they will be on.

I have the new flight info and they will be arriving at 10:30 pm instead of the original 5:00 pm.

I'm happy they will still arrive today but the 5:00 was perfect- I'd go pick them up, it would still be sunny and light- we would stop by the house to see Cooper and drop off luggage and then go meet Mel at the University and then go to dinner.

Yes, but one is never enough.
