Thanks for your thoughts. I understand what you mean, where other disciplines would not stand for this one bit. We are usually moderately meek people who never complain. Well, that's changed as of now as far as I'm concerned. In fact, I don't think I ever really fit the mold that well... :)

Not that I complained at work, but I'm not one to let someone come over and push me aside. Not in the least.

My own experience working with H1B folks has been generally negative. However, I don't necessarily think that it is the fault of the H1Bs.

In one case some managers in our company decided there was some problem that needed fixing. They proceeded to hire a bunch of H1Bs from a body shop and started them working. The managers neglected to tell any of us programmers what was happening.

I spent a bunch of time answering a bunch of questions from a guy who was obviously desperate to do a good job, but with no real direction.

They eventually canned all the folks with nothing getting done. And it only cost our lame-o dot.com company about $1,000,000! One of the cheaper mistakes they made.
