| 13:58.59 | mbuf | prpplague, the US market has picked up recently, and I am wondering if I should come over on H1-B, any thoughts ? |
| 13:59.14 | mbuf | prpplague, nah, came back on February 26, didn't feel like coming back |
| 13:59.58 | prpplague | mbuf: sorry can't advise you on the job market, but as far as the H1-B, well i hope your luck is better than mine. i'm a US citizen and i've been trying to get my wife a US visa for 3 years |
| 14:00.16 | mbuf | prpplague, jeez, you still working on it ? |
| 14:00.54 | prpplague | mbuf: yep, we almost had it completed at the end of decemeber, but the laws changed at the end of jan |

| 14:31.23 | prpplague | Crofton: yea, been below $1 for almost 2 weeks now |
| 14:31.54 | prpplague | Crofton: rumor has it that if they get probation for delisting, that they will be doing a reverse stock split |
| 14:32.18 | Crofton | heh |
| 14:35.59 | agaffney | a reverse stock split just seems like cheating |
| 14:36.07 | agaffney | artifically inflating the value of your stock |
| 14:37.19 | Crofton | I wonder why they do not base delisting on market cap |
| 14:42.33 | prpplague | Crofton: they do have some market cap restrictions as well |
| 15:12.53 | prpplague | sjhill: projects still moving along? |

| 17:30.45 | T0mW | prpplague: indeed! |
| 17:31.02 | prpplague | T0mW: and as far as taxes go, self employeement is taxed like crazy |
| 17:31.31 | T0mW | prpplague: shrug, you just see it more, when they incrementally take it out it looks like less |
| 17:31.58 | T0mW | prpplague: but, when you have to make those quarterly payments, then it really hits you how much they take |
| 17:33.17 | MonMotha | T0mW: not to mention the "double" social security |
| 17:33.35 | MonMotha | normally the employer pays half of FICA without you ever seeing it |
| 18:15.28 | sjhill | i hated that |

| 18:28.53 | prpplague | CosmicPenguin: what little documentation they have totally sucks |

| 20:03.17 | T0mW | chouimat: I would imagine that your government is eagerly rubbing it's palms together in anticipation of their tax percentage? |
| 20:03.37 | T0mW | chouimat: or, do you only pay a consumption tax? |

| 20:04.59 | chouimat | T0mW: company profit taxes are about 10 to 15% iirc ... plus the other stuff per employee but being a company (even if it's just me) will look more "professional" for those I try to get contract from |
| 20:07.29 | chouimat|away | later |
| 20:07.30 | T0mW | chouimat: ooo! So, run your business in Canada, then commute & live in United States. |
| 20:08.36 | chouimat|away | T0mW: hehe ... ok my "official taxes bracket" is about 33% but I will get a nice refund this year and I have universal healthcare so ... maybe it's not so bad here |
