MY STORY
Dear all sorry for so long absence, today i will like to tell all of u about my landing experience initial 2 months.
till i got visa in July i was not able to decide about final destination in Canada, i was confused between Toronto and Edmonton, i had few good friends in both places, but we had some relatives in Calgary as well,after consultation with parents and few close relatives i decided to go Calgary which was never my favorite destination, but GOD had written our ROZEE in Calgary.
i got flight from Islamabad to Toronto and then Calgary at same day , well when we reach to Toronto i was not believing on my eyes that we are in totally in new world every thing so so good and organized.
we passed through every counter easily and then reached to waiting area for our next flight to Calgary.
when we reached Calgary our relatives were there to received us and they took us home after spending 2 nights there they took us to our own apartment which they have reserved in advance for us.
they were very kind and they helped (my relatives talked to manager of that store before my arrival and when i reached Calgary, manager of that interviewed me and gave me my first job in Canada) me in getting my first job in Canada which was in Dollarama store, in just 5 days i got my first job , i was so happy to get that job , manager of that store was Indian lady she knew that this person is new and she was exploiting this thing negatively on first day she told me that u r very lucky that i gave u job other wise no one is giving job to new person , on second day she speak like this again , i threw that job on her face and went away on the spot.
when i reached home all my family and my relatives were very disappointed and were vary sad , i also felt that i did a mistake, my relatives told me that we will try to find some other job for u but if u left that job as well then we cant help any more in looking for jobs they told me u r not serious.
well second job they have looked for me was in some construction company and it was work of MAZDOOR most of them there were Pakistanis and they were very nice people they encouraged me not feel bad by doing this job, but when i lifted 2 big items of more 20 kg in open cold air of Calgary tears came into my eyes & i said in my heart oh my GOD what i did to threw away so good life in Pakistan with great banking job people around me respecting me i had a car my relatives my friends, i had good reputation and status, well it was very hard time believe me , i shut that job just after 2 hours.
well our relives were totally disappointed and they leave us on our own & told me that dear what will u eat in winter when u finish ur savings, but i was happy that my wife supported me and we were in full believe that god will give us ROZEE its promised by ALLAH,
i was totally alone at that time in new country , every night i was sending resumes on most jobs postings and in the morning i was going to every shop surrounding my area , at last i got a call from wall mart they took my interview on phone for about 20 minutes and then told me to come for face to face interview at 3 pm on next day , but unfortunately i reached late there because of i was not so used places and locations , manager selected other candidates and told me sorry , well at that time i was totally demoralized , from every morning 8 am i was going out and till 5 i was walking in cold weather of Calgary in October ,
i became sick with throat infection fever and strong flu , i spend 3 days at home doing nothing and finished all my antibiotic which i brought from Pakistan,well at that time i was so so unhappy by coming to Canada, but my wife always supported me morally,i went to doctor when doctor checked my wait it was 75 i was astonished at that time , because when i was coming from Pakistan my weight was 81 i lost 6 kg only in 3 weeks , when i was in Pakistan i was trying every bit to reduce my weight exercise , dieting & many other thing but it never came down by 2 kg in Pakistani, doctor gave me some medicines for free and after using that medicines i got better in 2 days.
25 days passed and no job and my bank balance was melting like ice.
i was not able to sleep fully some time at night at 2 or 3 i would got up and then was not able to sleep till morning ,on 23rd of October exactly after a month i was passing by a big and popular shaping mall of i saw a board of HIRING i went there with me resume , i met manager she took my interview and got copy of all my legal document of Canadian identity, manager told me come tomorrow for training we have training for new people and after one day training u will start job on very next day, i was expecting about same king of work which i did in my previous 2 jobs, but when i reached there for training they gave me my appointment letter which was not given to me by previous 2 employers,when i saw it i was so happy to see that my salary was 12/hr compare to previous 10/hr, in training i came to know that my designation will be sales associate and its basically customer services plus cashier job which was great,on very next day i reached for my job my manager told me please come in tie from tomorrow they were so nice people and they helped me for one week,there is almost no heavy work involved in this job i am facing more then 100 customers every day which is having very good effect on my speaking English , i am showing them different items and trying to convince them to buy our products , i am now enjoying this job now and have a good fun with my co-workers , i got my daughters first child benefit fund credit in to my account , 2 (2 weeks) salaries came into my account we make some friends here , we got my PR cards, i got 2 more calls for jobs of same kind but i never left that job and i am trying to get some good Canadian experience , every thing is looking good to me now and after 2 months in Canada i can now say that I AM VERY HAPPY ON DECISION TO COME TO CANADA,
.... I am here in Canada for about 7 months now and i have only G1
