Since cory decided no one else would contribute anything of value to that thread, here's my 2 cents in a new thread. Lock as needed.
prepress "brilliance" said ""Should I just quit my job now and let you pakistanis and indians have it?, ......... Here please take the shirt off my back"
1. Don't rail against foreign workers taking jobs unless you buy American. More jobs have been lost in the textile industry than in printing. The shirt off you back is likely an import.
2. Where do you stand on NAFTA? Tariffs? US companies going offshore for tax benefits? As long as it's easy and cheap to export jobs, companies will. Did you consider this before you voted last year? Do you consider this before shopping?
3. "you pakistanis..." Grow up. That's a crude racist way to put it. If you just don't like Asians, say so. The contempt in your post was obvious, as was the dearth of any reasonable view of outsourcing. The problem is just "you pakistanis and indians." Guess you just miss the good old days when printing was the exclusive domain of Quality White Folks.
