We might be looking at it the wrong way. The question is whether outsourcing is bad. Maybe thats not what the question should be. My view is that just like competition, outsourcing and globalization are facts of life. You can fight it, but it will not get you anywhere.
If you think of globalization and realize that the whole world is a marketplace then wont the whole world be a competition for your job?
When I think of outsourcing, I think of just another competition for your job. In some cases though when the entire department is being outsourced you are part of the herd. The same can be said for entire departments laid off.

Hi All,
Looks like there are interpretation issues for few IV members (I'm not against to any member or isolating any one).
However, I have noticed interpretation issues in understanding a thread / posting for few members (based on their reaction).
The way RED dots are given really pinches to the posting owner.
My GC has been approved and I have not married yet. So I have posted my issue on thread and seeking helping from fellow IV members. I have received nice responses. I also have noticed the following comments on my control panel.
Looks like, some members have serious interpretation issues. They all gave me RED DOTS.
I really don't understand, why some one behaves like this when some one else has a real problem
1. Not married yet. GC... 08-07-2008 07:05 PM GC and still complaining! great!
2. Not married yet. GC... 09-24-2008 11:13 AM parying god won't help
3. Not married yet. GC... 09-27-2008 09:43 PM backdating ur marriage date is illegal.
Not only to this thread, I have been noticing since a year, few members comments are terrible. Those kinds of comments would not help and Demoralize fellow IV members.
Some of them reacts and attacks the original thread poster. The answer posted would not even related to what original poster has asked for?. Don't know what people understand and what they post.
May be, we have to do some thing in this cases.
Ps: This is con traversal topic, See how others react based on their interpretation .

Please guys, I understand the frustration we're all going through but do not compare it to what happened to the Jews under the Nazis. We are indeed in a bad situation but comparing it to genocide is too much.
I have seen pictures of the Holocaust and still get nightmares.
Just keep things in perspective and have faith in God and your destiny.
Remember, the bill hasn't passed yet. It still has to go through the House of Representatives.
There is nothing in this world that is as evil as Nazis , People should refrain from using the word at any cost.

Chief Executive Officer
Infosys Technologies Limited

Fremont, California 94555
Dear Mr. Nilekani:
As members of the Senate Judiciary Committee Subcommittee on Immigration, Border Security and Refugees, we have a responsibility to oversee and evaluate our country's visa policies. We have been concerned about reported fraud and abuse of the H-1B and L visa programs, and their impact on American workers. We are also concerned that the program is not being used as Congress intended.
While some Members of Congress have focused on increasing the annual cap of the H-1B program, we believe it is important to understand how H-1B visas are being used by companies in the United States. We have received helpful data from the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Service with regard to H-1B visa approvals in 2006 for the top 200 participating companies. Your company was one of the top companies on the list. Therefore, we are requesting your cooperation in providing additional statistics and information on your use of H-1B visa workers.
First, some groups, such as the Programmers Guild, have analyzed the wages paid to H-1B visa holders. They have found that the average annual salary of foreign workers is significantly lower than that of new U.S. graduates.
Second, a number of consulting firms reportedly recruit foreign workers and then outsource the individuals to other job sites or companies. Many of the top 20 companies that used H-1B visas in 2006 are firms, such as yours, that specialize in offshore outsourcing.
Third, a number of firms have allegedly laid off American workers while continuing to employ H-1B visa holders. The American people are concerned about such lay offs at a time when the demand for visa issuances and the recruitment of foreign workers appear to be increasing.
Because of these concerns, we seek your cooperation in answering the following questions:
NUMBERS
How many United States citizens do you employ in the United States?
Is your company an H-1B dependent employer?
How many visa petitions did you submit to the Citizenship and Immigration Service for Fiscal Year 2007?
Of the total number of petitions requested, how many have been approved for Fiscal Year 2007, if known?
How many H-1B visa holders is your company currently employing? What percentage of your total workforce are H-1B visa holders?
What is the average age of the H-1B visa holders that your company currently employs?
What is the average number of years of experience of your employed H-1B visa holders?
Please describe your efforts to recruit Americans for the positions for which you employ H-1B workers.
WAGES
What is the average wage of your company's H-1B visa holders? What is the median wage? What is the highest and the lowest salaries for those H-1B visa holders currently employed by your company?
What is the average wage of your company's workers who are United States citizens in the same occupations?
OUTSOURCING
Of the 4,908 visas your company received in 2006, how many of those workers are currently employed and paid by Infosys Technologies Limited?
Of the 4,908 visas your company received in 2006, how many were outsourced to other companies and how many employees' salaries were paid for by a firm other than Infosys Technologies Limited?
LAY OFFS
Has your company experienced any layoffs in the United States in the past year? Any lay offs in 2005? If so, how many people lost their jobs?
If your company has laid off workers in the United States, what job positions were part of that lay off?
If your company has laid off workers in the United States, how many of those workers were H-1B visa holders?
If your company has laid off workers in the United States, did any H-1B visa holders replace those dislocated workers, or take over any of the laid off employee's job responsibilities?
We appreciate your cooperation, and respectfully request that you respond to our questions no later than May 29, 2007.
Sincerely,
Charles E. Grassley

with all due appreciation to the work done by IV, this suggesstion is not thought out.
You just cannot run away from your past. For example your existing applications to USCIS will have your india/<country> passport nos. There are many ways they can trace you.
So growing a moustache etc, or dressing like a mexican will not help.

How long does it usually take USCIS to accept the MTR. I am assuming if it's less than 6 months then we don't have to worry about being out of status?
wish life were simple huh?

Nah, I don't think so. Not a good article.
1. His salary CAN be raised.
i don't claim to know the answer here.
2. His wife CAN work, as article mentions that he applied for GC in 2004
If he is EB3 india, that may have been true till very recently
3. I never heard about 1 million - I guess we were talking about 140000 unused visas right? Where this 1 million came from?
the article quotes the Kauffman Foundation report. Please read it. There are about 1 million applicants waiting at various stages
4. If the company is bought - one doesn't generally reapply for GC.
maybe generally true, we don't know it's untrue for him though.
Even little lies don't serve a good cause as this article can be easily discredited.
i don't see any "lies" in this article. sound fine to me.

using a flash is ok, just be careful if you wear glasses (you might need some retakes before you get it right). and turn on red eye removal. 3.2 mp for the size (2x2) of picture is good enough.. Even 1 mp is good enough if you are zooming in to take pictures. but if you are cropping a 1 mp picture to take out surroundings, its better to use 2mp plus camera.
When using a flash you get harsher shadows, to counter that have light source both from left right and top and do the picture in daytime with atleast some natural light. Remember stand atleast 2 feet away from the white background.
Flash results specially in home environment without proper lighting won't be good at nighttime unless you use multiple synchronised flash guns.
I guess the other persons remark regarding flash may be related to lighting / over exposures/ shadows. (make sure you wipe your face if you have oily skin - no kidding )
In the end if you really want to make your pictures look good and per specifications go to a portrait studio.
Thanks Oldmonk for the detailed reply! I appreciate it.

It does not matter who will get credit for this. It would not happen without people taking action - IV members or those who took the USCIS to court (BTW, 90% of those did it without attorneys). Nothing happens if you do not do anything!

hahahaha.. good one.. what a support to Infy... height of slavery. I accept your veiw point as INFY's and YOURS view point. good keep it up.
Brush up your General Knowledge, look around you. If you see, there is a priority date on my post - Infy does not sponspor GC's, atleast not with those priority dates in EB2 category. Can you deduce what that implies?
You are thinking only about the small percentage of "lost Indians" (including me) who are in this mess - if you really think about your motherland (and mine), help guys like NRN get a good infrastructure in place. By ridiculing him, what are you trying to say? had you been in his place, what would you have done? Settle here immediately, and launch a daily "freighter" to bring all Indians to US? What desh bhakti!
tonyHK12 rightly said - "look around" - dont get blinded sitting in front of the computer with just one site to visit ;) Look at the good things that someone does, take the positive things out of everything, respect every being - that is what the religions say - if you really believe in one. Wake up buddy - may God bless you!
BTW, if you ask the Hindu "pundits", it is not a religion at all, its more than just a religion!

Me too.
I added some facts about how much I paid in SSN, Medicare, Fed and State taxes (in the last 10 years that I have been here) as well as some detail about what I'm contributing (patent pending) to this country. Another thing I mentioned was about my volunteering during the 2008 campaign (implying that I would be voting for the president's party if I ever become a US citizen in 2050 :~).
Thank you, MMJ, for taking the initiative.
I also sent my letter to WH today.
Good job MMJ.
