Current IT Skills Shortage - whats it all about?

[Likely]

i think the Injuns charge about 10.50 an hour now and are no longer competitive...the guys i've met that come over here (that are any good) are usually pretty shrewd business men (like most Indians). I can tell you they don't push the price down, they're as mercanary as us. They usually stay here once they're over here as well so have same living costs...

I'm working at a company that is now insourcing after 10 years of expensive outsource - IBM - Fujitsu etc etc...think it runs in waves really, new bods new ideas (that aren't really that new) - have a shake up etc etc, outsourcing was predicted to be the end of the world 7 or 8 years ago..

There are lots of problems with outsourcing that will keep us in work...

If you very good at what you do, you'll always be alright.

shrewd ? Indians ? What about moral , dignity , ethics ? Sorry but indians have the potential to become a coomon thief , not businessmen.

Pardon? Could you be more explicit?

Its not a matter of potential, they are good business people, its bred into them, and India is so ******* competitive there's a billion of them FFS, you do well to get ahead there.

To be fair most of the guys i've worked with have been ok.

I've not come across many successfull British businesses that have morals, ethics or dignity. Just look at BA - Virgin, Tesco's, Sainsbury's, alot of the US firms morals absolutly stink - infact where I am at the moment is the most ethical place i've ever worked at, they completly worry about giving a fair deal to the customer, turn money away even - they have stagnet growth and an ailing brand...

Business is about competition not morals, ethics and dignity try politics for that

I had to sell my car recently. It saw 35 % writedown of its value within 4 months. Now I know a car is worth what they give you for it and you only lose if you sell but ... The indian twat that bought it, knowing that it is already 35 % under priced was "negotiating" 200 further off. His justification for that was a ridiculous story and total offence to any-one's intelligence. I wouldn't have sold the car had he not showed up in a (Golf TDI , re branded GTI and chipped to 190 HP ) with a gang of 6 members of his community whose looks are enough to put them in jail on the grounds that anybody who looks like that just has to have criminal background. So put against the wall , bullied and under the implicit thread of finding a brick in the car's windscreen next morning... hi ripped the car off me.

Sorry but they are twats not because they are different race but because they were grown miserably.

Good to see sterotypes are alive and well in Blighty. Any news from your BNP meetings recently?

So you let the car go for less than you wanted and it's the fault of the person who bought it?

How did you even know he was Indian? Did you check his passport?

All he did was turn up with some mates and act like a tw@, have you really never seen white people do this?
