My ex boss(I know him for 3+ years now) asked me to relocate to another country for work with great salary, and he has everything figured out. (Visas, Work permits….)
I said, I doubt that it will be so easy as he is describing it, to get work permit in that country.. Did my investigation. Send him couple of links, with helpful information, to speed up the process and ease it also. Also saying, that he needs to think of this, that, this, that…. Because those are the questions that will needed to be asked.
His reply was: “Man, can you stop applying all this negative energy to it? stop asking questions and sending me this links. You are really annoying. I have lawyers working for your legal stay for a decent pay. Please stop with this.”
Since I know him for years, I thought, maybe I am really exaggerating and he can do things easily, because he knows people over there.
I relocated. It appeared to be exactly(even more) complicated then I thought it would be.
Guess what he is saying now? “I didn't know that was going to be so complicated”.
And he is finding out other ways to do it, which are the literally last resort. In case it doesn't work out and i get rejected with my work permit, I have to leave the country the next day, and his business stays without a person to manage it, meaning me, who specialises in this field and he won't find someone to replace me, because to get the knowledge that I have, takes at least 4-5 months.
Even though he paid for my rent and my expenses, and I am fine overall – I am so pissed.
