For H1B don't they have to show that they are paying at least market rate? And isn't it a factor in awarding the visa?

In the US, it's safest to only accept calls from numbera you've got in your contacts list.

I don't think NGOs can currently sponsor H1Bs... But maybe I'm wrong...

Isn't there a refinería at Salina Cruz?

I agree with that. It was surprising to me how easy it seems to be in the US to get by as an undocumented worker, compared to in many places in Europe for example. It's also surprising how mandatory eVerify hasn't been rolled out

Minimal wages is relative. I imagine that most people do it because those wages let them support their families and build a house / start a business back home. The crossing takes about a year to pay back, and there are living costs, bu

Usually it's not the company that pays. The company just says "turn up with an SSN" and then other people who already work there put the new employee in touch with someone who deals in them. I've heard it cost 200-250$ f

Yes, pet projects is research. For me at least it's a holiday, I get to set my hours, I can do what I want, read what I want, be where I want. That sounds like a holiday to me.

That's because they like doing research, not because if they don't do it they'll get fired. If they wanted they could just take that time off, they have tenure after all. No classes basically means no work outside of the work

It's great that the author found a good job and is happy, but being a tenured professor has its own advantages (at least in the US system)... 9 month years (three-four months holiday/year), essentially no boss, salary (maybe lower

Speaking Norwegian will get you quite far in Sweden and Spanish will get you quite far in Portugal (and Brazil). Perhaps the map could be updated with colours faded by % mutual intelligibility. Also putting Catalan highlights the whole of S

It doesn't mention that most land in England is owned by large landowners, including aristocracy and the state. There is no real record of who owns what either. https://map.whoownsengland.org ... We have never really had a

In Spain at least there is a difference between estacionar (to stop with the engine running) and aparcar (to stop and leave). In Mexico the two things are more or less merged, and if you say estacionar or parquear depends on how much Englis

When you bought your house in that place you agreed to pay that tax. You could have bought it somewhere else (with fewer services or job opportunities). I'm not disagreeing that it sucks, but you could just move to rural Mexico and not
