    It works for them because their work is high skill and always useful, general office work like mine (dev) is impossible to find a job if you were to immediately quit. It’s quite different when you’re competing against thousands of cheap IT graduates looking to flock to your country and work for pennies on the dollar.

    BTW not saying I’m anti immigration, it’s just the way the tech space is right now.

    Not American but I’ve heard American companies hire foreigners because they can wage slave them with Visa entrapment, no Visa and you’re deported. People that are trying to improve their life are just taken advantage of.

    I haven’t heard of anything like that happening to tradespeople

    I quickly looked at the trailer then skimmed through 1 & 2 (free on YouTube) and it seems very close although I didn’t see the scene in thinking of.

    I may be remembering it wrong but it was a kid and their friend playing a game and “the guy” shows up in it.

    Very close! As in, this might be it but I skimmed past the scene I’m thinking of.

    Also… what a nonsensical movie but hugely creative, makes me miss the 90s.

    Can you guess the movie ?

    I’ve asked this before online to no avail: Movie set in late 80s maybe early 90s.

    Thriller, tech/hacker focused

    Possibly extremely bad, Btier or worse

    There’s only this line I knew where the bad “entity” gets into a kid’s game and the kid says something to the effect of “there’s a guy in our game” (I watched it in French in like 2006 possibly)

    Any ideas? I don’t think it was a French movie, I think it was dubbed from an originally English movie.
