As a Black Man – I spent 20 years in school only to find out North America would not employ me for anything but menial work; so I now laugh as you find out your “dream” job finally goes to someone with dark skin….. [/quote]
Uh, my Hispanic husband’s job was replaced by another Hispanic person, so what the hell are you talking about? 🙄
Furthermore, my friend Meaza, who is from Ethiopia*, had two sisters who worked there who were not at all happy thet their jobs were being outsourced out of the country after all the work they did to get here. The tech from India was perhaps the most vocal about outsourcing his department to [i]his[/i] home country.
(*This is a country in Africa.)
I think it’s very old-fashioned to insist that all tech jobs in the US belong to white males. Very few of the people Mr. Pet worked with and [i]for [/i]were white males, actually. This is a big immigrant town.
Also, during a recession when people are out of work, the only business that is historically sure to boom in every case that of Ice-Cream . When people aren’t buying, they aren’t shipping. Truck drivers also get laid off and their wages get cut to match the overstock on available workers.
If your country starts outsourcing as much as ours, you may want to think about getting a little bell and becoming an ice cream man. 😉
