Outsource Concerns

[daggahead]

The folks I work with that are from India are a wee bit concerned that Obama wants to keep American jobs in America.

They're a bit unsettled that their gravy train may be coming to a screeching halt.

1. I'm married to an Indian who chose to join us. They can do the same.

Nice try at pissing on our parade, though. Just know that DU has folks from every walk of life.

4. And the problem is what....................?

Join the country legally and enjoy the fruits. Everyone is more than welcome, at least that's how I feel. American jobs belong in America.

6. I work at IBM...

we just had some people laid off this week because we lost some of our accounts to India. More layoffs are coming. I probably will be unemployed before the end of the year.

Fortunately, there are a handful of clients who have in their contract that none of their IBM support can be overseas. If Barack comes thru with the tax cuts for companies that keep jobs here, we might have more clients staying.
