Forgot to include this in my previous post. I am personally wondering if thoses tech jobs going overseas will come back. Im not sure if it has been discussed on this list, but what about the quality of the software written overseas? We all know that American made software typically has a few security issues, but what of software made overseas? Are we going to see exploits come out on a obsecene basis. Could this result in jobs coming back to the US? Also we have seen a few jobs come back, take Dell's Enterprise Tech Support as a example, tons of people with money complained to Dell and now we have a few more jobs back. What if we all started to complain about the quality of products (even if there isn't a problem), and threaten to switch vendors?
<sarcasm> I am personally wondering which "overseas" you're referring to. Could you be suggesting that jobs might be going "ovenseas" to the United States? That sounds absolutely terrible! What sort of an impact will that have locally?!? Jobs lost, wages cut - and you know the sort of shoddy quality that you get from companies in the US, too... Great suggestion, though - let's all complain about how the United States is trying to steal our jobs, and force lousy products on us, and threaten to switch vendors... </sarcasm> For crying out loud, can't you get it through your head that you're posting to an -international- forum, which includes a goodly number of people and posters that -aren't- in the United States, and find your blatant presumptions naive and ill thought out, at best? cheers! ========================================================================== "A cat spends her life conflicted between a deep, passionate and profound desire for fish and an equally deep, passionate and profound desire to avoid getting wet.
