Executives at Cigna, Intel, SAS, Sprint, Whirlpool, WPP, and Adecco...

They and Microsoft, Oracle, Cisco etc can kiss my @$$. TODAY over a million foreigners are in the US on H1-B an L1 visa taking jobs from unemployed Americans. Support of these visa programs has decimated the high-tech graduate programs that are the seed-corn for our future.

Students who were considering majoring in comp sci are going into business or law (shudder). Anything except the wage depressed high tech market.

My job at Sprint is in India right now, so they can kiss my a$$ as well too. Sending jobs overseas has not helped my former company out one bit.

But think further ahead. (Haha, listen to me, pushing 60!)

In the '60's, guidance counsellers said, "Major in Electrical Engineering! Good Pay!"

So everyone did, and glutted the market.

Then it was "Major in Chemical Engineering! Good Pay!"

So everyone did, and glutted the market. Now, no one wanted to be an EE any more-Too many layoffs!.

Then it was "Major in Software Engineering! Good Pay!"

So everyone did, and glutted the market. Now, no one wanted to be an ChE any more-Too many layoffs!

And so it goes. Every four years or so, there is a "Shortage" of people who did not major in a previous oversupplied field.
