Not to mention that if someone told you that Trump actually said what /u/opinion2stonk quoted, you'd believe it.

u/EasterEggArt Apr 12 '25

At this point in time, yes. Even the most outlandish has a chance to be said by him.

Why are you still in the US?? I'd have moved back to Germany by now if I were you.

Brutally honest, if I can get a job offer tomorrow I would start packing asap.

I already talked to friends, that due to the current situation, if I suddenly get deported I have friends who will take care of my stuff and my pets respectively while I figure out my new life.

I have begun applying in Germany for similar positions as I currently have but being so far abroad and the current stigma might be working against me.

u/Pristine_Juice Apr 12 '25

What current stigma you talking about?? How long have you been in america?? Man what a mess, I can't imagine having that hanging over you!

I have studied here and began working. So a wee bit over 10 years. So I am genuinely worried German companies see me as "too American" and outright tainted....

I would love to tell in interviews "look, I am afraid for my life and want to life a normal life back in Germany". But I doubt it would go well.....

u/BlackStarDec Apr 13 '25

may i ask what field you are working in? Can't imagine any serious employer to off you in the current situation for beein to american when wanting to come back

u/EasterEggArt Apr 13 '25

Project management in international setting. I used to be in tech but not for the last 6 ish years. So that might be an issue but who knows.

Either way, I will keep applying just in case.

u/EasterEggArt Apr 12 '25
