OP, you should look at it differently. Consider yourself lucky because there is a lot of competition among Asians to come to the US, so you should definitely be grateful. 12 years for. GC is shitty though, but that's a consequence of having too many people trying under the current legislation.
OP - A friend naturalized today after 19 years here and the family is out celebrating; he told me he was in tears while singing the star spangled banner before his oath ceremony; hopefully you will stick it out - sending positive energy your way
D1- you just proved Op's point! Ya all are douchbags
Assholes are everywhere. Yours just seem to leak more than most
The gc process is completely racist. I feel for you, op.
Hang in there OP. We all know what sort of a shitshow the process is. Sorry you had to deal with that.
Wasn't the D guy OP was describing "not from the US"? He got his GC in 4.5 months... D1 is still suspect! 🍿
Classic d
Because assholes only exist in D, right. GTFO 👈
Why racist? It's a numbers game. What part of it you don't get?
It being Deloitte is the most context relevant description on this app. That strong reaction to Op tho 🤔
❄️
🍿
D1 I know it was you who said I should be "grateful" for coming from an asian country to live in the US. Stop masking your passive racism by cussing me and the post
^ I'm sorry for the reaction OP.
I don't mind being called an asshole. It's okay. But not racist. And I felt your original post was putting us all into one basket.
The person you're dealing with however is both a racist and an asshole. F him 🙂
Diversity by country? There are 60% white non hispanic caucasians in the workforce. If you want diversity why not limit immigration from europe for example. What if I told you current admin passed a law where non muslim countries have to wait 5 months for green card while muslim countries have to wait 10 years. Everyone would call that racism---right
The existing laws for quotas per country were written 20 years ago. The mindset then was suspectfully archaic, racist and unfair.
French people don't contribute to our economy nearly as much as Indian people do, tbh. So much of our tech sector would crumble without Indian immigrants, not to mention the fact that since they're some of the most highly educated immigrant groups, they tend to have more earning (and spending) potential across the board
Quotas exist for a reason. I am immigrant myself and this has nothing to do with racism or discrimination. It sucks that your process took time but if anyone is really to blame, it's all your peers. Past, current and future ones. Can't be all you can eat, otherwise it will be all taken by the most represented countries like yours, China, etc. Be humble.
OP, absolute total fail. I'm not even from the US, nor have I stepped foot or talked to anyone who immigrated there.
But please carry on the hate and playing the victim, you seem to be an expert at it.
Deloitte guy is probably not the same nationality as you, and might have a point if you're Indian or Chinese (I'm Indian). All other nationalities can get a gc within 6 months to a year.
Could've just said your colleague/ friend etc but way to drag in the firm out of spite 🤷♂️
D1- you must be new here
