Doing the jobs that Americans won’t do . . . . uh . . . . wait a minute . . . . . never mind . . . . .
Good thing we are bringing hundreds of thousands of low-skilled, poorly educated ‘workers’ into the U.S. since there’s such a shortage of people in need of job...
Sounds like time to buy an Indian motorcycle...or will that name be changed for political correctness? /s;)
Buy a Honda. They don’t hire foreign labor.
LOL that’s a good one.
In our local Independence Day parade there was a Pearl Harbor survivor riding in a Honda SUV.
Only a few of us old guys got the irony.
Harley didn’t do this and more likely an unintended outcome.
They’ll likely remedy.
They’re good guys.
I got to see the museum in York, PA unattended after an appointment. No one goes in there alone and I felt like I was at the Vatican.
Not surprised though. I'm in the position to peer into the makeup of many of the IT datacenters and NOC's. More and more there are people with names, accents, and attitudes that pretty much indicate "they're not from around here". It's when I see these name and hear these voices coming from email domain names that you wouldn't expect it that I get concerned. We hear through the grapevine how upper management wants more H1b visa's because they can't find the skills, but when they come an American worker is let go to "make room" (ie. save $$$). The $$$ guys feel anyone with a certification, fancy resume and a visa is a steal. Trouble is, most of it is faked, and even after forcing the American IT worker to train his/her replacement, that person hasn't learned the job and usually ends up calling their friends or company vendors to do their job for them.
Makes me sick, and I'm working to "Go Galt" over it...!
Unions and the minimum wage are job killers, crippling the free enterprise system. Add to that the burdensome regulations imposed by the hussein/holder crime syndicate as well as the confiscatory taxes, it’s remarkable that any corporation is able to make a profit nowadays. Get rid of the NLRB, EPA, OSHA and the minimum wage. Then America will come roaring back as commie Red China is reduced again to a third world backwater.
We’ll get rid of them meddlesome things and America will swamp every country out their.
It’s a work ethic thing.
Zee Fwench sure don’t have it and china only makes products best sold on Canal Street, in Manhattan.
But I still think it stinks.
Hey, they’re making ELECTRIC MOTORCYCLES NOW for God’s sake.
That Honda may be more American than a Chevy truck. Check the VIN.
It should also be noted that Republicans are pushing for an expansion of H-1B just as hard.
>>Buy a Honda<<
Rather walk twenty miles over broken glass barefooted.
Sounds like Harley may be going back to it’s AMF day’s.
But will Indian fill their tech support positions with...Indians?
Seriously, most of the time I call customer service lines these days I get someone with a thick accent. I’ve been to job fairs a where they had openings for customer support specialists “bilingual only”, meaning Hispanics only. Now when I get someone with an accent I don’t even waste my time with them. I tell them, “I’m sorry but I can’t understand you because of your accent. I would like to speak to someone whose first language is English please”. Frankly I don’t care if they are offended, because I’m offended that companies won’t hire native born Americans.
Who started the H1B program?
I tried to have a conversation with a state employee once and couldn’t understand her. I told her I didn’t speak Swahili. I heard her screaming something in Swahili as I was hanging up.
