    only have yourselves to blame
    Ah, I think you've used that one a few times before DA.

    In fact, I am convinced you seem to take a perverse pleasure in rolling it off at us IT contractors, as if somehow the reason why our jobs have migrated to alien shores is purely because we single-handedly installed the telecommunications infrastructure necessary to make it happen.

    The reason jobs went off shore is because of shareholder and corporate greed. That was the driving force. The infrastructure was merely the vector that made it possible. The greed existed long before the infrastructure.

    Telling us that we have ourselves to blame, is somewhat akin to telling an arms dealer that he is responsible for people dying. It's a fallacious argument, since the arms dealer is not the one pulling the trigger. He may be an accessory (through supply) to murder....but he ain't the murderer.
    Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

      Whats the average salary for a recruitment agent in India.. ?

      I get more and more calls every day from foreign chappies acting as agents... hopefully they'll soon outsource the lot.

          At my current client we regularly get Indian sweets to share between us. Very nice. (Think about a group of slavering dogs fighting over a bowl of Chum and you get the picture.) But I'd rather have better job security, higher pay ...

          But ... Indian companies are complaining that they cannot get skilled staff.

          Fungus.

            Thats ironic... most of the English companies Ive worked for complain they cant get skilled Indians....

            One thing about working in Scotland - they just dont seem to have shipped in boatloads of FTVs.... very rarely see them here.
