Default For a better life

Hi! To all of you out there!
My name is Leo, i'm new over here.
I have a problem and i'm trying to get any help.
My story is like this...
For almost 3 years i lived the Americam dream and i can say that i love it.
I was in New York, Queens. I worked as a driver for a bridges and scaffolding company. I was more than happy. I have tried to bring my wife with me, but with no luck. So, in the end, i have decide it to return to Europa to be together.
Before leaving NY, i promise to myself that one day i could bring my wife to NY, and if possible to live and work there together.
I'm looking for some one to sponsor me, to be able to come again in the US.
I have attached my Resume.
If is some one there who would like to spensor me, i'll be more than happy.
Thank you all! (in case you read this)

God help us all! and God Blass America!

You do not state on what basis they could sponsor you. "Driver for a bridges and scaffolding company" is unlikely to make it through PERM, and if it did would, at a guesstimate, be at least a 5-year wait until your number came up.

Yes you are right, i did't say on what basis they could sponsor me. "Driver for a bridges and scaffolding company", this was my work back there. I have attached my CV/Resume to my profile for anyone to see.
In my country, Romania, i was a university teacher (internet, computers, hardware, software). All this kind of stuff.
But i think you know that in life you have to do some things and learn then, even if is not in your area of expertise (if i may say so).
If some one find you a job, lets say limo-driver or personal driver (not the same as limo-driver) or build bridges (hard work, belive me, i've done it), i'm not gonna say no to that. "You have to take everything that life has to offer you, and give all the best you can to learn". This is what i belive. But i don't know, maybe i'm wrong.

Default And why not?

And i'm ok with that.
If you are a smart one, you got the money to invest, to create more jobs (in any part of this globe) why not?
Is for a better live (make others happy and you will find your own happines).
And it's a good thing that they give you right away a Green Card and Permanent rezident status (e.g. U.S., Canada).
You help them and they help you back.

Met an English guy once here in Phoenix who'd been a roadie for a Pink Floyd tour in the late seventies and jumped ship. Been living in the US ever since and now a citizen. But that was 30 years ago! The US is very different post 9/11.

If you come and stay without suitable status you are confined to the very bottom rungs of the employment ladder, and even that is difficult with the new and growing e-verify program making it impossible to qualify for anything other than day laborer type status.

Once you've broken the rules like this, it's getting increasingly difficult to repair the damage.

So you're confining yourself to poverty and eventual deportation in one of the richest nations. As I said: insanity!
