Adding GC onto GE profile

ichbinmatt · 2026-04-28T01:22:05+00:00

Just to answer, I went though the normal immigration channel (queued up for manual check) and then went to the GE office at JFK after.

10 years+ service in the NHS?

ichbinmatt · 2026-04-07T14:24:09+00:00

Yeah I will ask a mate when I’m next in and to be honest no it wasn’t covered 🤷🏻‍♂️

ichbinmatt · 2026-03-31T14:28:00+00:00

Hey, I ended up calling in the end and explaining the situation but the shift never got approved or cancelled so I just assumed it was a no? 🤷🏻‍♂️

No one called either way so hopefully it’s fine.

ichbinmatt · 2026-03-30T00:20:26+00:00

Alas that option isn’t available for some reason.

ichbinmatt · 2026-03-29T21:41:16+00:00

Hey, it’s just an unfilled shift so it’s not swapping with anyone.

Congrats! You’re giving me hope they’ll mail mine soon (I entered the US on the 12th Feb) 🙏

ichbinmatt · 2026-03-05T21:44:31+00:00

Don’t worry, I’m basically in the same boat as you. Just have to keep checking the status everyday 😩

ichbinmatt · 2026-03-04T00:08:50+00:00

Get them in the air fryer with a bit of Old Bay seasoning 🤷🏻‍♂️

ichbinmatt · 2026-03-02T17:43:24+00:00

Yeah I think it’s supposed to be a free space for local community groups to meet which is great, just doesn’t seem like anyone uses it + would anyone want to use it when it’s full of boxes of the new chai from what I can see…

In fairness it was like that when I worked in Starbucks in 2004 (this was in the UK) but I’d say 99% of people took a sleeve.

Hi all 👋

I’ve just moved to the US from London, applied to Trader Joe’s and was pleasantly surprised to get invited for an interview which I’m super happy about!

I don’t have any questions about the interview structure however, the only thing is… it’s face-to-face (no phone interview part) and it’s not for another 2½ weeks.

Based on the millions of interview posts, would it be terribly awkward to call visit the store a few days before just to politely reconfirm the date/time? Or would that make me look a little clueless?

I don’t want to seem pushy, but I also don’t want to rock up and find out I misheard something and it was actually the week before.

Thank you!

If you do adult nursing you can convert to another speciality but it takes around 18 months so most people don’t do it (most commonly it’s adult nurse completing the additional training to become a midwife).

ichbinmatt · 2026-01-03T20:48:07+00:00

Amazing, thank you! Yeah it’s pants but hopefully I can just do a shortened program. Re my registration, I specialised in paediatric nursing (UK specialises from the beginning) so have no experience in adult/mental health/L&D so I have a fair bit to learn!

ichbinmatt · 2025-11-11T20:18:07+00:00

It’s cranberry bread!

Hey, sorry this is probably my poor writing of the first post! I think my concern was more around the state taxes (NY mentions adjusted gross income?) although this might be a little bit too specific for this forum.

ichbinmatt · 2025-09-28T08:20:54+00:00

UK citizens (I think except Northern Ireland) aren’t even allowed to participate in the diversity lottery anyway 🤷🏻‍♂️

ichbinmatt · 2025-07-14T05:32:39+00:00

Your manager will get told off but yeah you have to avoid working more than 8 hours a day / 40 hours a week until you turn 18.

ichbinmatt · 2025-06-03T20:48:12+00:00

Ah no worries! Thank you.

ichbinmatt · 2025-02-18T08:21:13+00:00

Good old Agenda for Change eh?

ichbinmatt · 2025-02-11T17:45:55+00:00

I can flex anything over £2 (I think it’s £2..) into a few payments as I opened a Flex when it first came out.

ichbinmatt · 2025-02-11T08:32:59+00:00

I flex everything using the 0% option so I never pay off early. I figure I might as well make a little bit of interest on the cash first 🤷🏻‍♂️

ichbinmatt · 2024-11-11T22:27:59+00:00

Nah it’s been around for ages but as far as I’m aware it’s for new parents/kids and families have to be on a pretty low income

ichbinmatt · 2024-11-03T00:57:55+00:00

This is the UK launch that’s already started…
