If you don't know where the next paycheck is coming from, it very possibly is worth it.
They are already screwed.
So they decide to take down their fellow workers and the nation with them?
The subject was indignity. And their fellow Americans aren't getting that job in any case - they also are "already screwed".
AT&T owns CNN and their mission seems to be to do anything and everything to make President Trump look bad before November 2020.
Trump can easily turn the tables on them by prosecuting them for lying about the unavailability of Americans for the jobs in question.
Think he will?
“tell these jackals to f off.
It’s the only long term solution.
Just say no, and walk.
Those that collaborate are enemies too.
Is it a solution - would refusing to train mean that the H-1B would not be given that job?
“And their fellow Americans aren’t getting that job in any case”
that’s because weaklings keep training their foreign replacements.
Do you really believe these deals would go forward if the existing workforce refused to cooperate?
Maybe ONE. Extraordinarily rare thereafter.
“would refusing to train mean that the H-1B would not be given that job? “
It means he and the corrupt bastards that made the decision will not keep theirs.
And it would deter others, knowing the damaging outcome to business operations.
You can be the very best network engineer in the world, but if you go into a complex corporate network without methodical transition and training, you’ll be breaking stuff for a year.
And some of it will be really, really big stuff.
Trump has completely failed to reduce foreign workers.
In fact, Trump has substantially increased OPT work visas - now more than 200,000.
OPT is a lightly camouflaged H-1B work visa for recent foreign graduates of USA universities.
It is actually part of the normal student visa for foreign students.
Recent STEM graduates can work in the USA for 36 months.
They - and their USA employers - pay no Social Security or Medicare taxes.
From memory - the lost tax revenue is more than $1 billion a year.
Somehow I get VERY SUSPICIOUS when Trump haters tell conservatives why they shouldn’t support Trump.
Sod off, swampy.
Agree. The worst though are the “consultants” that sell this crap to dumb executives. It doesn’t help America and it doesn’t help the companies that do it. I’ve seen project failures after failures due to offshoring tech dev. Anyone who thinks offshoring provides REAL value has no experience with it, has a vested interest in claiming otherwise or is simply a fool.
It’s easy to BASH TRUMP here.
So how about telling us who we should support instead. Maybe William Weld, or Joe Biden?
Re: Is that last paycheck or two really worth the indignity?
The added compensation is much higher than that.
Typically, large USA corporations increase their standard severance package by 6-12 months if you train your foreign replacement.
Full Disclosure....
I completely oppose ALL foreign work visas except for truly unique or truly gifted individuals - maybe 10,000 a year?
Who's a Trump hater? And who has said conservatives shouldnt support Trump? Are you sure you posted your note to the intended thread?
H1B and OPT are simply the elites scrapping on the American workers for the last thirty years,and it is a truly bipartisan program.
"Hasn't done enough" is "bashing"? Have a hankie, snowflake.
How about telling us who to vote for? Maybe no one else, just stay home?
I still want to know who YOUR CANDIDATE is. I see you also posted an article attacking Trump for not securing the border fast enough (for you).
So who is your candidate?
