[Born to Conserve]

My company was bought out, and the new owners immediately set about reducing labor costs by replacing the experienced engineers with indians. Every one of us went to the competition and got better pay, without interviewing. The customers went to the competition, the indians went home, and the company went bankrupt, all within one year. It was sweet.

Truly a happy ending.

I just LOVE “feel good” stories like these...!

It is always a good idea to photocopy the business cards of your key customers and your key vendors. You can always look like a hero if asked with the answer "sometimes I need to work out of home and be available after hours."

Those contacts come in very, very handy at times like this.

I get reminders of the mixed quality of international coders when our system data pull bring up a notice “pooling”.
When I tried to explain it, they said it was the same word - it sounded the same.
