For many Nepali students and people alike .... Indian, Paki and Bangla,  stores and restaurants is like a stepping stone when one doesnt have papers or a better connection to work in a mall or something in a non Desi establishment. For students once they graduate gets their working permit and stuff, apply for work visa through a sponsering comp. For others There was that green card lure. I worked in a greek sandwich store as a student owned by a Punjabi........They treated me like a BROTHER...kind and polite....but paid me very little for long hours.....but I survived. After graduation got my work permit and then got sponsered for the Green card by a company.......      I do thank those indians for helping me out when I was desprate for work and money...........but now that I look back.......they paid me $325 a week for working like 80 hrs a week. That is way too low...and those guys took my tip money and had houses and drove fancy cars. There were 5 nepalese students working there and all were paid less but we survived the two yrs of hard labor and less pay. Now some of my friends are working corporate jobs making 6 figures, some opened their own restaurants, and My self I am a small time self employed business man. I still meet those punjabi x bosses but I dont hold any thing on them............they are the same where they were....working the same old life. they are exactly like how they were 8 yrs ago...no progress at all. 8 yrs later.......I am proud that all my friends and my self who worked for those Indians.....live a better life and some of us make way more than those Indians will ever do. SO WE DO HAVE THE LAST LAUGH..
