    Outsourcing jobs to India to India to increase by 7 times by 2008

    http://www.rense.com/general40/outsource.htm


    Man, o' man. Does this shit get scary for the tech field and related fields.

    Glad I don't work in this area. Yet it's an indicator of things to come.

    Who here thinks we'll see job riots by 2005?

      it's been happening for awhile... India has been making it easy for their young to get college educations for awhile now.. They are allso doing their best to keep their grads, and to get the ones that come to america for educations to return once they finish...

      The thing is, companys can pay them 30k a year insted of 60-80k and they will be in a higher social class in India than if they were making the 60-80k in the US... Dateline did a show on this a few years back, I've just been wondering how long it would take to start affecting the US job market.
      In November, you can vote for America's next president or its first dictator.

              okay "dumbass" now you understand how our system works. the spoils don't go to the guy with the biggest tears. don't like it? try to change the system. if you live in this one, its competition beotch. they're competing and winning.

              okay now that the "intelligent" convo is over, i'll tell you how i competed and won fighting for million dollar contracts against towel heads for auto industry contracts up in detroit. personal contact, intelligence, knowledge of the market. the best salesman wins unless the client is so poor they can only afford offshore help. if that's the case you don't want the contract anyway.

              did you think about this before responding? you definitely don't have experience it it!!

                          hmmmm....maybe time to take haircutting lessons...

                          oh well, but I think maybe there is a limit and a saturation point. And speaking English is a competitive advantage for now...

                            Not having to make international phone calls is another advantage for local developers.

                              welcome to the club. my job went to India December of 2000.

                              really haven't had a decent job since.

                              "we want to make your air cleaner, your enviroment better etc, etc."

                              yeah right.
                              they want cheap labor.
                              wherever in the world that may be.
                              and its going to get a whole lot worse.

                              if I am not spending money then someone else will lose their job due to lack of work. then he don't spend and guess what happens?

                              we got us some real Fart Smellers (smart fellas) running this country.

                                    This crap is why people like me, with 15 plus years in the industry, with certs up the wazoo, can't even find freakin tech jobs..
                                    It hurts, ya know?? I can't tell you how many job's I've sent my resume to in the past 18 months, only to be called and told you are overqualified..wtf..?
                                    I took a NY Civil Service test for Sr. Network Engineer..Got my results back a few weeks ago..I am number 2 in the state..Means If there are any state Sr. Network Engineer jobs around and number one doesnt want it, I get it..And I was overqualified for the tech test..????***!!!
                                    So,,my certs are now toilet paper..and the jobs are going overseas while thousands of competent tech people are here in the US, manning pushcarts in the malls..
                                    Makes perfect sense, right??

                                              Is this something that has only just started in the US? This has been going on in Europe for a few years now and in the UK in particular.
