An update for yall
Ive been running in circles..working, looking for a new job, job interviews, driving hours and doctors appointments...the vibes at work are very negative because everyone is fed up with the new boss. Getting a new job in this crisis is like winning a lottery.
Im basically totally overwhelmed with everything. I sm depressed, fed up, tired and cant sleep. Even sleeping meds dont work. I need to hold on but i am afraid i may just totally burn out soon if no miracle comes soon
Is there good news yet?

Hi all,

My work contract is ending soon and i am now told that I wont get another because i am not a korean male...yes u read that right
I work in a korean company and we just got a new boss from korea and according to him only korean males should work in his company. Besides the fact its illegal and they have gotten in trouble because of that before...i need to find a job until mid of August and keep my sanity
I am super upset and p.... off. I cannot sue them because i need my recomendation letter and they dont need any official reason to not lengthen a contract.
And all this going on in this corona crisis where getting a job is like winning in the lottery....
Please pray
Hi Demi,

I'm very sorry! I'll definitely pray about this. I actually made a very big mistake throwing away my first American job because it wasn't in my regular line of work. I was really foolish. But it wasn't much later that God gave me a second chance and another job that will probably start beginning of August. So, what I'm saying is that you mustn't stop praying and hoping that God will provide! And I and a lot of other people will be praying for you too, every day! Okay? Hang in there!

I'm very sorry to hear of your situation, Demi777! Sounds familiar though. There is an H1-B visa program which was supposed to supplement jobs with foreign works only when there was a shortage of American workers. Well, the greedy corporations high-jacked this program and started replacing American Information Technology workers with with workers from India to save on labor costs.

They are told that if they don't train their replacements, they would not get their severance pay. This is and has been going on throughout the entire IT arena. In addition, now they are taking over the employment agencies giving and precedence to their fellow countrymen for job interviews.

Our Government has sold us out! And Senator Mark (lie through his teeth) Rubio, stands up there saying "No America's are losing their jobs due to the H1-B program," which is a bald-face lie! Because there are literally thousands and thousands with the same story, who have been replaced by Indians because they work for a lot less.

I will keep you in prayer that God will be the Lord your provider. All things are possible with Him. Nothing is impossible.

Don’t know what they are like in Germany, but these and other app delivery services are worth looking at.

Both my sons do them, and make between $20 - $35 an hour. Taxes are not withheld so you’d need to remember that.
Good luck and God bless.

Delivery services pay minimum wage or 450 euro basis. Not an option. I didnt study languages and worked in business to end up taking a job that pays me less than the fee i can get from the government. As i worked 1 year i will get 60% of my salary for 6 months in case i dont get something good until my contract runs out

Just keep on praying, Demi. God will open doors for you! And I'll be praying every day for you too. Something's bound to give in and you'll have a job before you know it. If there's a development you let everybody on this website know, OK? There are so many people praying for you that it's impossible for a new job for you NOT to happen.

God Bless, Roy!

Dear Demi,

I remember you were scared about not getting another job and being asked to leave because you're not a Korean male. God will look after you, sister! I'll keep on praying that you get another job the very day you need it, OK?

You need to stay close to Jesus because He's the Only One Who will get you through these difficult COVID-19 lock-down times. I'm praying for you every day, so you must never feel alone. God also understands you very well and knows what you need.

Please stay in touch with me and keep me regularly updated. God loves you so much! I'll follow-up with you a week from now.
God Bless, Roy.

Dear Demi,

Are you any closer to getting a new job? Is God still providing for you? I'm sure He is. You'll never go hungry!

As promised, here is the e-mail I told you a week ago that I'd send. How are you and your family? Do you feel like you've made any spiritual progress this past week?

Please stay in touch with me and keep me regularly updated. God loves you so much, so stay close to Him! I'll follow-up with you a week from now.

God Bless, Roy.

You could always try another company, that is the best you can do. Unless you perform very well in your job. Good luck, i am praying for you.

I hope Demi is alright. It's past mid August when her pay runs out. I don't know what her insurance is doing, or if she is collecting any income at all. Catch us up.

Sorry to hear about that... If its consolation there are just so many of us that are doing it tough as well... We feel ya...
I live in the working class side of town, born and raised here. I haven't worked all year cos of the crazy extreme restrictions in my state. Curfews, 5km radius limit, we can't even leave the country...

We can't leave the country... Why in the bloody hell not... Im yet to heard a viable explanation... I have two little secret islands where i can flee to be with family. One island has had 1 covid death and the other has had none. Both are gorgeous holiday islands that i would be very happy in spending my days (i do prefer one but either would be fantastic)...

Oops i wondered off there... Dreaming...
I guess what i was trying to say is stay strong in your faith, everyone... Don't fall into that sense of despair and hopelessness that the evil one is trying to draw us into... We can never loose hope, we must cling onto the very last hope if that's all there is... Cos even though we don't fully understand pain and suffering we can be sure that with God the ends justifies the means...

May Gods peace be with you and everyone on this forum who has had to deal with hard times
