Mary,

To stay legally in the U.S., you must have a "basis,' i.e., U.S. citizen immediate relative or employer who can get you an employment-based visa, or qualifying student visa.

I recall a Pakastani guy telling me that the difference between his visit to Korea, compared with the U.S., is that it is easier to "fit in" and not have your status challenged in the U.S. He squeezed into the U.S. fairly easily with an L1 visa based on his "commercial enterprise." Two years later he was driving a taxi.

No, you haven't obtained a legal basis to wor in the U.S. Your father can petition you, but if you are over age 20, it will take quite a while for you to be eligilbe for a quota visa slot.
