Cringely’s got a ramble on
‘offshoring’ that starts with a full head of steam about
age discrimination, then lets it all go and wallows in a bland thesis
about helping customers better (or not), before landing on sort of an
interesting note at the end: “To improve profitability they are
looking for cheaper bodies. They can’t envision a business model where
they can do more with fewer bodies.” … “What manager at any
big company would trade 100 workers for one, no matter how smart the
one? No manager would do that, and yet they should.”
