I expected a by-line date from the 90s. There’s nothing new about this, the good news is if you work for a company that wants you to train your replacement (regardless of where they’re from) you probably want out of that place anyway. Use that training time to jump start the search, and don’t feel an obligation to finish the training.
It’s still important to spread the word that most H-1B visas are going to high tech workers from Asia, not unskilled labor from Latin America. These are the people who are taking good high paying technical jobs from American workers, and sending their wages back to their home countries, rather than saving and investing here in the US.
My barber told me that when his son-in-law got laid off, in the last two weeks of his job, he was forced to train his two replacements from India. Within a few months, the company offered to re-hire him, because his replacements didn’t know what they were doing, and ended up costing the company a couple million dollars in losses.
Stories like this need to be passed on to the general public whenever the topic of immigration comes up. American workers need to stand their ground against this government-sponsored invasion and takeover.
I agree nothing new here. Another tip: If you ever hear someone say “knowledge transfer” or (I personally hate this) “pick your brain”, LEAVE. IMMEDIATELY. ASAP. As in, put all efforts into leaving RIGHT NOW.
