Was on an H1-B visa. Moved to spouse’s dependent visa. I have just around year left on my H1-B and my previous employer was mid way through the PERM process when they laid me off.

Most companies don’t want to hire me because of the delays in the processing of PERM these days since I have just a year left. And I just recently switched careers from construction to data.

Feeling really hopeless and alone. My spouse has a good job, but this stress of not getting any work has been devastating to me. It took me around 8 months of job searching to find a role as a career switcher and now I’m back to square one in a bad market. I don’t have anybody I can talk to and just want to talk about my problems.

I’m parked outside a Burger King parking lot in the car by myself and don’t have a clue on what I should do.

There is no mention of suspicious activity. The only trigger I can think of is a recent modem reset that changed my Public IP, and my new IP doesn't appear to resolve to my old physical location in Google's geoip db.

Am I crazy or does this seem like an extremely cynical attempt to get more phone numbers? I don't even understand how giving them my phone number proves anything as I definitely did not ever give them one previously.

Unfortunately burner phones are not available in my country, so that's not an option.","time":1536466378,"title":"Tell HN: Google requiring phone number to log into Chromebook","type":"story"}]]
