"Increasing export of white-collar jobs is cause for concern "

http://www.sltrib.com/2003/Aug/08102...ness/82527.asp

"Already call-center jobs have been affected, including jobs in Utah. Convergys
Corp. a week ago confirmed plans to move at least 100 technical support jobs at
its Taylorsville call center to an overseas center.

Almost any professional job that can be done long-distance is suddenly up
for grabs.
Jobs done by financial analysts, architectural drafters, telemarketers,
accountants, claims adjusters, home loan processors and others at higher levels
of the labor food chain are being farmed out to workers in other countries"

And changed again. High - tech jobs are being exported
to India, and programmers there are working for $10K
per year, as opposed to the programmers and analysts
here, who work for $50K and up. While the CIOs
and CEOs thump there chest like baboons and chatter
about "RIO" and "Our dedication to the shareholders,"
highly - educated Americans eat rice and beans, and
wonder how they'll pay their mortgage. So much for
education.

When the brain trusts running these companies figure out that sending
all these jobs overseas:

1. Makes their own sales go down, since who will be able to afford their
stuff if people here can't buy it?
2. ****es people off when they call Dell(for example) and get someone in
India, who they can't understand. I know two people who are "done with
Dell" since they started getting people in India answering CS and Tech
Support calls.
3. Make people even more resentful of the insanely high pay some of
these bigshots get after cutting lots of jobs.


Maybe, they will have the sense to stop it. But I doubt it, most people
in upper management have a totally warped view of how things really
work, and how they should work..
