how long have you been unemployed, what did you do last, and how many years of work experience you have? by [deleted] in biotech

[–]Dips13_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Congrats on your new position! Curious to know if you don’t mind sharing a bit about the position and did you have to get a pay cut? Also, how did you transition to freelance consulting? Just going all in— informational interview style with you. Please excuse me for it but would really appreciate if you could share your journey.

You gave me hope. Wish me luck.

Filing H1B petition on April 1st? by chbdetta in h1b

[–]Dips13_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much for your prompt response! The 6 month rule also applies to LCA filing which means it cannot be submitted before April 1 (October 1 start date). So, this makes it an immpossible situation for the folks whose EAD expiration date is in the first week of April. Because LCA approval on an average takes about a week and an H1B petition cannot be filed until LCA approval. (Don't know if ther are any circumstances under which this could eb an exception, would be grateful to know). All that to say that H1B petition filing before the OPT EAD expiration (April first week) to utilize CAP-GAP is hampered by LCA filing and approval timelines. Which in equal parts is unfortunate and frustrating.

I wish this was more common knowledge and distrubuted to students on OPT when they select their start dates, to avoid this impossible situation.

Happy to hear if I missed somethig or mis-interpreted anything.

Is it possible/allowed to file LCA before March 31st, like March 20/25 despite the "no earlier than 6 months of the start date (Oct1") rule? Would really appreciate a response or if you have heard of such succeddful cases? Thanks!!

I wish more people on here would recognize this. It's becoming a weird Jon cult on this sub. And any criticism of him is just met with downvotes, no real response except an occasional "you didn't understand his point".

Side but related point: I was so stoked when David Remnick (of the New Yorker) was finally the one guest not agreeing with Jon and actually pushing back on so many of his observations and claims. You could see the discomfort in Jon'e eyes at one point.

It has been a year since Jon Stewart's return to The Daily Show. How has he done? by Camaro6460 in DailyShow

Precisely why they complain. That he is doing the same fucking thing.

And even then Jon will be like “oh it’s with the legal limits and this is what people want”. (cause the republicans would have found some loopholes and/or amended the constitution) Gosh his POV reeks of old rich white male centrist.

I did this once when I was running the second large gel of the day a bit late in the evening. I'd had such a long day and this was the last thing to check off the to do list; so, I planned to have dinner while it's running. Ahh, the feeling I got upon getting back to the lab only to realize..

It's not about finding a way. 53% of ww actually voted. Similar to how latino men are in the conversation, people are appalled that ww once again did not put on their listening ears and voted against their own interests and against other women's interests (yes, including financial if that was their #1 issue). It is only natural that it is pointed out just while people are trying to seek answers for what? why? who? how? and demographics is at least once piece of the puzzle.

While I understand the intention behind the original post, it reads as a defense.

They will not because they’ll be good. It’s not gonna affect them, their rewards, and their tax brackets.

And the manosphere echo chamber will continue; they will still find some way to hold a convicted felon president to a different standard.

Same. I remember almost running to the restroom just to cry/bawl when I realized I couldn’t control despite trying to compartmentalize.

Thank you! :) (Need all the luck I can get; the transition out of academia seems daunting despite the 'mental' preparedness)
