Actually, this friend is the one I discussed in another thread. He was offered $67 an hour to work in a remote area. He accepted the offer. Guess what?....

He could not withstand the working conditions of this big chain. He had almost gone crazy because of lousy working conditions and inappropriate trained coworkers. After a year of suffering, he decided to move back to work with his previous employer and still cannot sell the house that he just bought after moving to this town. The house market is bad. In a small town, it is hard to sell a house in this market situation. Now, he is living in a small apartment on his own with no kids and no family as his previously planned.

"Money means nothing."

He keeps complaining, "I am not sure I made a right decision to come here. After a lengthy process of getting my license and processing all these documents for migration. This is what I get. I owned a drugstore and worked as an executive in one of the best hospitals in my home country. Now, what? I have no family here. Let's see how long I can survive all this. "

"I see so much testing in the world, and see how badly most of it is done. I also see the faith many people put in tests and test results, and the consequences for people when test results are used to make decisions about their lives. --Liz Hamp-Lyons (2002)"
