just got back from orientation.. they went through what our job would involve etc.. plus I had to fill out sign a bunch of forms :P

I also found out that I am required to have First Aid and CPR .. so I have to work on getting that.. awhile back hubby mentioned that he wanted to get it too so we can do it together :thumbs:

My pay is going to start off at $8.25/hour because I don't have a lot of experience working with the elderly... and you get 51 cents a mile for gas if you run errands and transport the seniors places...

wow, u seem surprised?? Was there any doubt you would get the job? Ur an awesome person! Congrats

Canadians Visiting the USA while undergoing the visa process, my free advice:

1) Always tell the TRUTH. never lie to the POE officer

2) Be confident in ur replies

3) keep ur response short and to the point, don't tell ur life story!!

4) look the POE officer in the eye when speaking to them. They are looking for people lieing and have been trained to find them!

5) Pack light! No job resumes with you

6) Bring ties to Canada (letter from employer when ur expected back at work, lease, etc etc)

7) Always be polite, being rude isn't going to get ya anywhere, and could make things worse!!

8) Have a plan in case u do get denied (be polite) It wont harm ur visa application if ur denied,that is if ur polite and didn't lie! Refer to #1
