I’m honestly so grateful for my parents for immigrating here. I got a chance to get a good education and get a good job to live a happy life. I am truly blessed. Sometimes when my job gets tough, I remember this and I appreciate everything I have.

Immigrate where?

To Canada

like

Absolutely. Good to be grateful!

Wish we had more folks like you OP!

Came here as refugees and life is good here in Canada.

Same here. I am here because of the difficult choices my parents had made and their sacrifices in our early days that followed. They did all that to give me and my brother a chance at a better life. I am absolutely certain that I wouldn't have been as half successful had I stayed in Korea.

Not saying I would have starved to death but I don't think I was academically talented enough to succeed in such a competitive place :-P

Colleague has put in his resignation. They are offering him whatever he wants to stay including 4days a week work from home. He’s not bluffing and plans to leave. However, at this same time I was asked to begin working as a supervisor for the engineering team and I would get a promotion at the beginning of the year. I have been supervising and managing our team of 6 for months with no extra pay or bonuses. I was told yesterday that raises will be light this year. Yet today they spare nothing.
