I feel like everywhere I work, we have this term, and it’s become increasingly more common over the past decade as the USA becomes more and more hateful and aggressive towards the working class people… The offshore team. I really, really hate hearing about the offshore team. It’s from a certain country in Asia that starts with I But I have nothing against those people that come from that country, it’s simply out of concern for my well-being and my survival that it bothers me…

You look at a country like Germany, and how they have a workers council, and a country like France that has proper retirement, then you see the USA and how We have millions of computer science grads who struggle to find work, can’t get a job, universities churning out new students in the tens of thousands per year… We shouldn’t have an offshore team, at a company that makes billions of dollars, led by people that have so much money amassed up that they could survive for a thousand years spending millions.

It’s just embarrassing, that as a society, we are so horrible to each other.

    What really annoys me is when this becomes a racist thing. You get managers who love all ethnic Indians because they “are cheap and work hard” and then you get everyone else who now hate all ethnic Indians everywhere.

      Indians CEOs of mega corpos was the best PR move owners ever did…

      Idiots think that some sort of glass ceiling got shuttered when it was really PR to make Indians work harder since they too can be a CEO if they sell themselves cheap and work harder than the lazy Americans they are replacing.
