I got terminated from a consulting firm I transferred to after having my son. Work at EY SF was just not sustainable. This small firm dropped the ball and left me hanging because they did not want to move forward with my GC despite their promises. And they told me this YESTERDAY, three weeks before my VISA expires and forced to go out of the country.

Sigh. Everyone is expendable.

No morality whatsoever.. I'm terribly sorry OP. Living on a visa in this beautiful country is just not worth the daily uncertainty and struggle anymore. Your faith is in the hands of an employer or a lottery.

Do you have to permanently leave the country or are there other ways to come back?

I have to leave. After a year visa refreshes and I need a company to sponsor H1B lottery. This is close to saying it will never happen.

I am so deeply sorry... I wish there was anything I could do for you.

Good luck.

1) there were obvious favorites (coaches are not even hiding that fact);
2) some can’t even play and got on the team,
3) some that can obviously play but did not get on the team;
4) decision were obviously made before the first day was over.
