Join the Conversation – Humpday Zoom
This next week I will speak about the FY25 Supplemental Visa Release as well as the current situation regarding (semi)permanent cap relief.
You may or may not know this, but late July 2022 I traveled to San Antonio for back surgery that I needed due to arthritis squeezing my spinal cord. The first day I was in the hospital, they stopped the surgery due to indications that I would be paralyzed from the waist down. The completed the surgery with a different procedure on day-two. That night my brain started to bleed, requiring brain surgery.
I ended up in a coma for about two weeks.
When I came to, the surgeon stated that what I went through was equivalent to having three strokes in three days, was lucky to survive, and that typically someone who had went through just the third surgery, would need six months of physical therapy and occupational therapy to get back to work.
However, I was able to pass all of the benchmarks and was released after one day and went back to work the next week. The surgeon said he had never seen anyone recover so quickly, I guess the good Lord wanted me to keep supporting the industry.
What is the point of this story? This made me understand that I needed to build an organization that would be positioned to support the mobile entertainment industry for decades after I am gone. It put me into a training mode. Training about the basics of the H2B program takes at least a year, and then throwing in the complexities of the mobile entertainment industry more than doubles that timeline.
I knew that I needed to focus on the projects that I am uniquely qualified for such as long-term strategy for ensuring Labor Solutions for the mobile entertainment industry, focusing on the most complicated cases to be resolved, building relationships throughout the world to identify the best candidates for the industry, and to work on strategies for each and every employer.
This means that I typically do not take random phone calls or texts, and only communicate through my email [email protected]
In the old days, when this was a one-man operation, I would be able to travel around the country and meet with all of the employers and the workers, but with the added regulations, audits, complexity of the program – this is no longer possible. I attend the trade shows in Las Vegas, Orlando and Tampa/Gibsonton…… but this is NOT enough.
I have added the Humpday Zoom Call – first Wednesday of every month – you should all take the time (about an hour) to log on.
AND I am always available for strategy sessions for YOUR COMPANY. All you need to do is request a strategy session with Mr. J from your primary or secondary case manager.
