Have you ever had the impression that something significant is just evaporating while you're so near to obtaining it? akin to attempting to get a space for your H1B Dropbox meeting. You wait for your turn while you're there, looking at the screen, but it never arrives. After doing more research, one user discovered something startling. We've all been there: waiting to reserve a spot for the H1B Dropbox while seated in front of our screens for what seems like an eternity.
 

Like many others, this Reddit user spent more than half an hour confined to the notorious "waiting room." They opted to use developer tools to explore behind the scenes because they were curious and frustrated, and what they discovered is—well, let's just say—it seems like a joke.
 

The user found a piece of code that governs the operation of the system when they were seated in the virtual waiting room. The worst part is that the browser simply refreshes the page every 30 seconds. A continuous page reload without a queue or organized line. All that waiting, then? It's just the system keeping you in the loop, not because there is a long line in front of you. What does this signify? The website automatically updates every 30 seconds, or 30,000 milliseconds. That's it. There is just waiting; there is no line going ahead or "you're next." Again and again.
 

This seems like a betrayal to anyone applying from india or anyplace else. We are taught that our turn will arrive if we simply wait patiently. Instead, we are stuck in a never-ending loop of refreshes and are unable to determine whether we are getting any closer to making that elusive appointment. Finding out that the system could not even be advancing you is much more stressful than juggling deadlines and visas. It's really annoying. Imagine being in a virtual environment where you are always being looped back to the beginning.
