Boo-Hoo, ya breakin my heart Mr. Habib, Mr. Sanjay and Mr. Fritz. Quite frankly, once the layoffs start, it should be the H-1B visa workers who go first.

MicroSoft and kiss my butt as well. At my former company in Omaha, an IT person (straight out of college or with some experience) could get 30k-40k easy, but the H-1B’s have driven that down to the mid-20’s. In some places, it’s as bad ad $11-$12 per hour!!! After a few years, the “old-timers” (making 50k to 60k) found themselves “downsized” and replaced by cheap foreign workers making 25k.
