One step closer to heaven

Our Employment Authorization Cards arrived from INS this Monday. This means we are one more step closer to obtaining our Green Card! Hurray! The interesting thing is that Leah can now, in theory, get any job she wants, while I am still stuck with my current job until the Green Card is issued to me. This should happen around next summer. Even then I may have to fulfill the contractual obligation I have with my company, i.e. stay on for another two years so they can recoup the legal fee. To be honest, I can’t wait till the day I can start looking for a new job. Not that my current employer doesn’t look after me well but my philosophy is not to stay at one job for too long. One can’t get too comfortable, otherwise I will never move up.
