Quoting: SubarcticBeefTake a month or two off then look for another job. I have an MBA in finance but if I can lose my job with those quals who says I cant lose it again to India. I guess education does mean anything anymore either. |

Anonymous Coward (OP) User ID: 714023 United States 08/16/2009 09:25 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Can you start a company and create X-number of fake Indian workers to earn the same amount? They can't possibly be as resourceful as you and a few computer programs. Quoting: bedI want America to repeal child labor laws and bring back slavery. If this is how globalization is going to work (Labor at the cheapest cost no matter what the conditions, age, or load is) then lets really compete and save some money and let 10 year olds work. Lets bring back slavery. We can really compete with China then. |

It's really sad when companies outsource, but you made this up. I hope you don't think you are helping. You're not. |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 750058 United States 08/16/2009 09:36 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Very sorry for your loss, OP. I've been strongly warning (and personally affected) by this trend for many years now. I am simply amazed that nobody seems to take this mortal threat to the livelihoods of American workers seriously. It easily surpasses all other threats that we face here in the U.S. today, imo. |

at the corner of Wall & Wo User ID: 750062 United States 08/16/2009 09:39 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | You don't liek this kind of shit? Here's what you do -- any company you catch shipping jobs offshore instead of hiring Americans -- at the next general shareholders' meeting, enter a motion to investigate hiring cheaper foreigners -- for upper management jobs. They have a fiduciary responsibility to their shareholders to maximize return -- through all means. Cutting costs on management would have a huge return because of their over-inflated salaries, bonuses and perks. |

As I said if this is how we should run things lets legalize slavery and repeal child labor laws. Who needs to value life lets get some good slaves. That will help save LOTS of money. |

If you know a company is outsourcing your jobs elsewhere vote with your wallet. Don't invest or spend your money there. And tell them why you're going elsewhere with your business. If enough people band together on this, they'll get the message. And OP I am sorry about your job loss. I've been down that road, I know how it feels. |

Slavery is back.. i an big way... it is called a few TRILLION Dollars of money no one has to spend spent before we even make it.... we are screwed and so are our kids... DEFAULT ON THE DEBT is the only way to go... Just Pretend your General Motors. If we will bail out General Motors I am sure we will give you another Half Million to by a house.. after all poor business planning is not a reason to no support a guy, just look at the banks and the Car Makers. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 714023Well, you can at least make people aware of the financial jobs that they are now shipping overseas and warn investors what they are doing. Like, don't invest in this company, it ships American jobs overseas. If these criminals take bailout money(I don't know if your company did) the jobs should stay in the U.S. At least start up a blog online and warn others about this company. You can not be sued for making strict statements of fact, right? Disclaimer: I am Canadian and still learning about the U.S. peoples opinions on this website. I also do not know jacksh*t about U.S. law. So I could be mistaken about how the bailout thing works, but aren't your Senators working the buy American thing strongly right now? I know our government is pretty wound up about it because our economy depends on you guys doing well. E-mail your representative for your state. Let him know how you feel about your job loss. |
