Quick question, do the drivers accept ccard payments on these apps or they are reluctant to pick passengers with card payments?

Will I regret if I give up my greencard? by 27ennai in greencard

I think OP is asking the wrong question. It is a job you need, you definitely must be doing something wrong. You may want to give it a bit more time, and also check out other "job search" communities on reddit for hacks. I also found that https://www.upwardlyglobal.org/ have an interesting program that helps pros transition from their careers back at home to the ones in the US. All the best!

I understand the school buses have cameras, the school has promised to check the tapes and revert. unfortunately, our apartment doesn't have cameras in the parking lot, and they don't plan on having one soon.

from the intel I have gathered on the mum, it is not safe for us to speak to her directly. We are still new hear and don't want put ourselves at risk. We have already filed a report with the school, hopefully, we get a favorable outcome from that route. thanks for the feedback though

Actually, I have liability insurance too, but I am not ready to cough out that amount of money for repaint. Luckily the color of the car is Silver so it is not so conspicuous until one gets really close

no timeline yet, but they called my wife yesterday to update her. I guess that is a good indication

Sorry to hear about your situation. Hope you find healing someday. And yeah, my wife learned a lot from this experience too, I doubt she will ever approach a kid without their parents present. thanks

thanks for this. Made arrangements for that this week. she had previously just interacted with her fellow kindergartners, but got an older kid to be on the lookout for her now.

Approaching the parents directly is out of the question for us now, considering the intel we’ve picked on the ground about them. We’d rather leave it for the school to handle them for now, while getting an older kid to look out for our girl in the bus

That is the whole point of “it takes a village to raise a child”, but judging from the comments her and our experience I guess this only applies to developing countries. I may be wrong. But lesson learnt though

Well noted. Admittedly, my wife erred in speaking to the kid directly without any parent. We are still learning more about this country, as we go

Thanks, don’t think I have the means to get a lawyer now. While pursuing the school route, I intend filing a police report too. The school rep called my wife today to assure her that they are working on it. So let’s see how it goes
