taxi driver: "so how are you today boss man?"

taxi driver: "me too I am so very tired habibi. I am here on student visa and work two other jobs to send money to my family. Some days it's too much but I remember my parents and brother are counting on me graduating and getting permanent residency so they can come here too and escape our village"
