Adapting to outsourcing: babysitting 10,000 mile long supply lines with people who will tell you flat out they understand all your issues exactly and who will then turn around and make any damn thing they can that will fit in the shipping container and look close enough to what your ordered to get you to cut a check.

They'll flat out lie to your face about just about anything.

The last place I worked had outsourced a lot of software development work.  We figured it took 20 Indians to equal one of our American developers, and they still couldn't deliver software components to spec. management was absolutely living in a dreamworld, and was working the domestic folk to death who had to make up for the shoddy product coming from overseas.
