Check your "six" on this bud.
This thread primarily is aimded at the Technology Industry.
This industry was prior to the last ten years primarily staffed by Americans born, raised, and educated in the United States.
That has all changed in the past ten years (as this thread amply demonstrates).
Swing over to the "low-tech" workers - the grunts who have to put bread on their table via cold, hard sweat and labor.
THAT segment has changed exponentially greater than the technology industry in the past ten years.
I'm talking farming, steel, carpentry, roads, meat processing, textiles, restaurant, hospitality, and other manual labor-based industries.
Have you been outside lately?
Can you say Mexican?
I have nothing against the Mexicans. I have dug trenches with them (when I had a job), and observed their habits on a number of work sites. I could speak un poco Espanol, and we got along well.
They show up every day (unlike the gringos), they work hard (unlike the gringos), they don't take breaks (unlike the gringos) and they work for $10 per hour (unlike the gringos). They have good attitudes. They are, to make it simple, good employees.
If I were an employer, I would hire them in a minute over some tatooed jailbird derelict with no driver's license.
