  1. Re:as a former Swiss guest worker... on US Near Bottom In Life Expectancy In Developed World · · Score: 1

    that's interesting. however, once you have a work permit, it does not really matter whether you are a citizen or not, unless your job post requires security clearance or language skills that you do not have as a foreigner. also as a foreigner you pay the same unemployment insurance and get the same benefits as other workers, so you can even prolong a permit while on unemployment. when i first got my permit, my employer had to pay me *more* than he would pay a local worker, this is done so that only those foreigners get the permit who are indispensable and for whom no readily available alternative exists.
