Maybe white heterosexual Christian middle aged American males can get a tech job and not live in poverty anymore? What a concept!

Why are we bringing those H-1B Indians working in India to come over here? I would prefer they stay in their own country and NOT come to the US.

I’ve been blowing off emailed job alerts and phone messages from Indian recruiters named “Chuck” who didn’t notice or don’t care that my resume’ does not list a Master’s or Bachelor’s Degree in any field, as required or preferred and according to their clients’ job description. It’s not just Chuck, it’s “Steve”, “Mike”, “Lisa”, “Tracy”,...I can’t understand them over the phone either, no matter what their names are. They seem friendly and polite enough but damn, I’ve had it with these beggars and the sound of their emaciated voices.

They can work in their homeland anyways. Plus most of the Chinese ones are probably going to be spies so its just as well they stay in Red China.

“if you are in India, can you return to the U.S. before Trump’s new rule takes effect?

Can you make it back to US in time?”

Now put a tariff on the economic value of these exports from India.

Why didn’t Trump do this in his first term in office one could ask.

Boy,

I wonder how the missing indispensable and uniquely skilled hotel receptionists, Disney clean and wait staff, or fake doctors and pharmacists that don’t know their ass from a hole in the ground but show up with a piece of paper saying their’re an MD, will impact our economy?

Maybe some US hospital chain like the Cleveland clinic can hire some Cuban doctors in the future? (Sarc)

https://aapiusa.org/ You have organizations like this pushing this, and US corporations looking for cheap labor pulling.

Cuban doctors, they’re trained! They get a 20 week training course and are able to say some medical sounding things! (Sarc)

Don’t knock it, you racist. (The usual retort)

This is brilliant of President Trump.

At my former employer (USA subsidiary of a large German corporation beginning with “S”), a lot of the many, many Indians took all their vacation time and went home to India for a month in September. I hope “S” USA loses their shirt.

Ha Ha.

Last minute reservation changes on usually packed international flights to get half way around the planet? LOL! My 2 trips to New Delhi from DC for the US Government each took 32 hours whether going thru Europe or East Asia and tickets had to be purchased weeks in advance. The layovers in London or Hong Kong ate up a lot of time. Instant itinerary changes were nearly impossible. These people booked the cheapest, nonrefundable flights. Good luck.

I don’t like this at all. It’s messing with people’s lives. Trump could have phased it in or, preferably, not done it at all, at least to thus high-dollar degree.
Yep, I’m agin it.

Per worker or company? Big difference. Also how until President Trump creates exemptions for certain companies?


The Trump administration said on Friday it would ask companies to pay $100,000 per year for H-1B worker visas, potentially dealing a big blow to the technology sector that relies heavily on skilled workers from India as well China. Tech giants Amazon and Microsoft have already advised their foreign employees holding H-1B and H-4 visas to immediately return to the United States and urged the H-1B holders to stay in the US “for the foreseeable future”, according to internal communications

“the technology sector that relies heavily on skilled workers from India as well China.”

“Skilled” and not so “skilled.” What the writer is getting at, of course, is “cheap.”

This is NOT a big blow to the technology sector. This is good news.
