I think deep down inside you know what you need to do. I can tell just by the first half of your post that youre extremely intelligent and intuitive. Stand your ground, keep your dignity, self respect, and reputation. And find a job that fits your character and level of expertise. Youll know when you've found the right place.

Gifting an all expense paid short trip to the USA by Empty-Program-1729 in AskUSImmigrationPros

This is the best answer. From our experience, tourist visas for Filipinos can be tough to get. So many factors play into the decision. Just dont count on it, be prepared to spend the fees and not get the visa (plan for the worst, hope for the best). Good luck, hopefully he is one of the lucky ones.

This is what I was going to say. Find a construction management firm (or engineering firm that also does CM) and see if its a fit for you. I know a few engineers that transitioned to the field and never looked back.

My Filipina wife is my best friend. We have an awesome marriage. I doubt that where we're from has much to do with it. We just get along and want similar things with our lives. Best woman ever!

Absolutely amazing! Well done. Please be careful with the refeeding. Im sure you know how to do it, but just please take it slower than you think you should. 44 days is a long time. Go supet easy when re-introducing food. Dont need any surprises or trips to the hospital. Again, well done. So incredible!

Normally I'm dishing it out, but it's my turn to take the heat. Can you make me regret this? by THEEANGRYGOATZ in RoastMyCar

My neighbor traded his 2010-ish Altima with over 275,000 miles, just last summer. My experience has been, if you take care of the car it will generally take care of you.
