Maybe maybe not. It depends on what specifically the IT worker does. If it's something like working on servers or AV then yeah they may be in trouble. But for anything that the worker needs not physically be present can be worked around.

There is a lot of IT work that could be outsourced, but not quickly. It would take even highly skilled replacements a year to spin up on that particular system.

Unfortunately senior management tends not to understand that last part. They think all geeks are interchangeable at will.

We had a great guy at work for years as an hourly—which he wanted because he was billing at a pretty penny for a long time. New boss came in, canned the contractors. That was ~5 years ago. I stay in contact with him and was asking him for help on something last summer! And he still remembered. I was sure to get him his previous hourly rate, which was money well spent. Even huge companies have so many esoteric systems that only 1-2 people understand. :(

Trust me the government can do nothing fast. I work for the government and we were tasked with processing the unemployment claims. They were so ass backward that we did all the training and plenty of other things to get the job done. Then it was oh wait, wait more, today, no tomorrow, maybe the next day, maybe a week from now. It never happened. They couldn’t even get the computer stuff to work to complete the task. I could tell many more stories but I wish not to at this time to avoid publicly saying who I am.

Which state do you live in? There is NFW New York will be seeing a Republican governor any time in the foreseeable future. Heck, we could wind up with FUAC reelected when he runs again.

Nah, one nuclear terror attack and we could be back in the red.

OFC, that's because NYC is obviously where it would be targetted, and a few million less blue voters would push things over rhe edge so far they couldn't even cheat their way into winning.

I don’t I’ll bet they are happier at this point than we are. I’m rather pissed off at the damn government lately. Well more stupid ass Biden and the far left but the Republicans are rather useless too. I’m glad they do t want to spend 3.5 trillion though.

They will probably " fast track " these people into vacant nursing and doctor positions. There goes our wonderful healthcare system. Walmart greeter's get priority and go to the front of the line. " How I may hep you "? And "hep" is not a typo...

What were once our superb and dedicated "Essential Workers" will soon be illegal border jumpers. Maybe we can fix it Mañana...

Why are so many NYer’s and especially Erie county residents mad? The vast majority of NYer’s are democrat, and Erie county votes hard democrat every election. They voted for Cuomo and hochul. This is what they voted for? Did people not realize elections have consequences ?

Hindsight is 20/20 and almost always very painful. They are learning a very hard lesson about consequences right now. Well, at least some are...

When the govt. brings in H1Bs to do this to tech workers nobody says anything... so why should I care? As far as I'm concerned it's about darn time for others to have the same shit happen to them. Eat shit assholes, outsource and replace the whole hospital for all I care. We should just make it a permanent program after, like H1B. Just replace the doctors vaccinated or not, fuck em'.

We care when it happens to tech workers too. I’m not sure why you would even say this. I didn’t say hochul says FU to health care the title and all comments are against US workers. if you’re a US worker then we’re sticking up for you too.

Except they don't. I'm not saying you, but Americans as a whole. I'm happy everyone else will start to get a dose of that pain. It's been far too long. Maybe when Karen can't get her botox she'll demand a change.

www.computerworld.com

Disney IT workers, in lawsuit, claim discrimination against Americans

The lead plaintiff in this new case is former Disney IT employee Leo Perrero, who testified earlier this year before a Congressional subcommittee about his experience in training a replacement.
www.computerworld.com www.computerworld.com

H1B is supposed to be for worker shortages, not to replace Americans already doing the job and training a replacement. People still buy Disney shit and visit their parks. They'll never see a cent of my money.

If you want something more local you can read about TCS (Tata consulting) and the corrupt shit stick Hillary Clinton and WNY back in the early 2000s. I'm sick of the political elite fucking over the average person. I want the pain to become so accuse to everyone so it can no longer be ignored. If you've been against it all along, then sorry - my ire isn't targeted at you.
