  1. HA! I make 20k more a year now than my manager makes so no I dont need that headache of babysitting people...
  2. Oh Jesus not this super immigrant shit...They are just like us. Some of them work their asses off. Some of them spend half the day in the break room playing ping pong or take 2 hour lunches 3 days a week... Some of them don't know shit...Some of them are brilliant. Some of them cant work with other people and dont have open minds and some of them are great team players...
  3. I had a shitty boss for a few years that has been canned.
  4. I know exactly what your so-called "skilled" Visa laborers are.. I've trained about 10 of them that lied their asses off on their resume's at my current job.
  5. My ass it wasn't cheap then....I did have a problem with it back then yes...We graduate hundreds of thousands of IT students from colleges each year that could have been trained to do the same job and a lot of them were struggling to find jobs. As I said, the Democrats and Republicans in Congress had no problem whatsoever signing the most recent immigration compromise with wording in it to expand the H1B Visa program...
  6. Skilled Visa labor isnt cheap now...What do you know about 5 to 10 years ago when most of these people I work with were getting jobs and unemployment here in the US was not so good?
  7. So im to blame when the company I work for wants all the cheap labor they can get, and they don't mind using loopholes in our laws to get it? That's pretty rich...
  8. I don't need the government to protect me from anything....I have a great paying job and tons of experience. I get job offers all the time and have no reason to be afraid of competitiion. I was replying directly to the people on here that say young people here in the US with Bachelor degrees are not getting calls for interviews for jobs...
  9. Unemployment isnt bad now, but my company has been steadily hiring H1B visa holders for close to the last 10 years..As many as they could get, even when unemployment here was bad...
  10. That would be a good plan; except, when your Director sends a memo and says all new open positions are going to our office in India. Im telling you these politicians and corporations are selling us out...If the younger generation wants to do something to improve their livelihood in this country, they need to start paying attention to this shit and the politicians that support this shit...
  11. Whatever man. Believe what you want to....I work on a team of 20 people in web development and 18 of them are from India...You want to know why the competition is so tough for Bachelor degree holders to get jobs here in the US then you cant ignore these things..
  12. My answer to that is seek out every politician that wants to expand and not decrease the H1B Visa program and don't vote for those bastards. Pisses me off every time I see a new employee walk into our office for a good paying IT job and 90 % of the time they come straight from India. I got nothing against Indians, but I think it is stupid to ignore they are taking a lot of jobs that home grown or naturalized Citizens here in the US could be trained for. I noticed when Congress signed this latest immigration compromise they didnt hesitate to put wording in it to expand the H1B visa program and none of them batted an eye about it. They all rushed to vote yes on it...
  13. Im a gen Xer that grew up in the 80's and have been working and also furthering my education and training since I was 16 years old...What freebies have I taken from the government?
  14. I hear this all the time, but every single good job I have worked at, I started out at a lower skill job even with the degrees I have and I worked my way up and out of those jobs within just 2 to 3 years...There are a lot of companies that promote from within but you have to crawl sometimes before you walk...
  15. If I was going to do it nowadays, I wouldn't fucking go to a college or university unless maybe I wanted to be a doctor or lawyer. I see very few professions where a traditional 4 year degree gives you some kind of advantage in the workforce over somebody that just has certifications or went to a trade school. I don't understand why kids today want to strap themselves with all that debt when their are other options. For example, my wife recently graduated school as an Xray tech and then went on to get her Manmo certification and MRI certification just in the past 3.5 years. About 2.5 years of it was spent in school...Total cost was about 12,000 dollars for school. She waited on a list 5 years to get into this school. The school placed her at a hospital in basically what was an internship and now she has a job at that hospital making 35 dollars an hour starting out. That's a pretty freaking good return on a 12,000 dollar investment...
  16. I worked full time, had a scholarship, and went to night college so very little debt.
  17. Brainwashed? Shit! Maybe some of us so called old people that arent that old yet have seen this country change for the worse and don't like it....My generation would never let the government take away our rights for a few freebies...This new generation seems to be begging the government to do just that....You could learn a lot from history...
  18. You prove my point. Im supposed to believe what they are reporting when I know, you know, everbody knows they have an agenda? That agenda is to make Republicans and their points of view look bad...I'm a Republican. If you believe everything they say is true and it doesn't bother you, then great, you've found a home to get your news from...Im not saying Fox doesnt have their agenda as well...I'm saying their arent many sources of news out their that aren't censored or targetted in some way. If I'm not in the target group for a certain news outlet with a hardcore agenda, why would I want to watch it?
  19. If their was a news station out there that had more centrist Democrats and Republicans that I could hear both their points of views and arguments, and they werent censored by the people they work for, that would be right up my alley....I just don't see the point of watching say CNN as a Republican when all it does is make my blood boil...I mean they have an agenda to target a specific group of people and their entire slant is for that group, and I am not in that group of people they are targetting....
  20. Well some of these news outlets don't have the best track record as of late....I don't really want to fill my head with a bunch of crap that gets proven wrong over and over...If I want other news, I usually read NPR....
  21. Why would a conservative Republican watch any other news, honest question? About 80% of the newscasters are liberals on other stations. Make the media less biased and Republicans would watch other programs...I dont need to turn on CNN and hear a bunch of shit about how bad Republicans are. I dont live my life how they generalize all Republicans live their lives so to me it is just a bunch of BS..
  22. The problem is you take away the rights of law abiding Citizens to punish criminals. It doesnt work, you just punish the law abiding citizens while the criminals will still commit viokent crimes with whatever weapon they can get.... You want real gun control? How about start with reporting everyone to the Feds that tries to purchase a gun but fails the background check whether they be in this country legally or illegally? The Dems will never go for that though because we can't have people illegally in the country on a list of any sort...They already proved it with the gun legislation they are trying to pass now...
  23. The Clinton Campaign paid Christopher Steele to dig up dirt on Trump. Was Hillary trying to collude with the British to rig our election by hiring a former British Intelligence Officer to investigate Trump?
  24. Are you going to start with the criminals or just take away the rights of the law abiding citizens first because that is easiest for you? Are you going to take all sharp and blunt objects too? You going to take driving privileges as well? Those little missiles kill a boatload of people every year...If somebody wants to harm another person, you think confiscating all their guns will stop them?
  25. I wouldn't trust any politician to know what is going on with our Southern border or even how to fix it....They should really start listening to people like the border patrol ...They have pretty much ignored the issues with the border for decades for political reasons. Both sides of the aisle...They only take action in the rural areas of the Southern border when the issue gets so bad that one of the little border towns becomes like a third world country due to the crime wave, and it starts hitting the national news. It takes years sometimes of people begging the government to do something about it before they will react...
