: : You need to open your eyes bud. Either you dont see most of the things that I type, choose to ignore them, or just twist words around to try to prove your points.
: : I never said a MEXICAN couldnt do my job, I just said, basically.. not word for word here.. that an ILLEGAL, especially in this area for christs sake, wouldnt have a college degree that is required to do my job.
: : As for me moving to CA, I have family in this area and prefer to live around here than get paid the extra cash out there, or the few other companies in the northeast that pay atleast 60k a yr for my job (and the cost of living is about the same as it is here). Actually a few of my friends from my job have left to go to these other places for the cash. Where I work there are background checks and a few other tests that you have to pass to even get to the first interview. As for calling me racist.. watch it bud. A few of my best friends from college arent from this country, they have degrees, but they did it the right way. Got student visas and became citizens.
: : Any number of qualified candidates can apply for my job, but they've never gotten rid of a fully trained person there, to pick up a newbie.. just doesnt happen, and for good reason. It took me 4 years of training to do what I do.. AFTER COLLEGE.
: : There are about 6-8 companies in the United States that have the people trained to do my job. The industry that we're in has been climbing in demand for the last 20 years and is now a $500+ billion/year industry. Out of all of these companies, mine pays probably one of the lowest in the business.. only because of the wage scale for this area. Honestly thats their excuse for us making less than the rest. Understand now? I AM making good money for this area. I can go elsewhwere if I like, but I choose not to for family reasons.
: : I feel far more confident in my job security than alot around here.
: : I sense some jealousy in your posts.. grow up and get over it.

: Maybe you need to read the posts. Since you think I do not I'll just pull quotes directly from posts..K?

: Above you wrote and I quote,
: "I never said a MEXICAN couldnt do my job,"
: In your last post you wrote,
: "A mexican isn't qualified to do my job."

: I didn't call you a racist.
: I asked,
: "Are you a racist, dumb or both."
: To which you replied,
: "As for calling me racist.. watch it bud. A few of my best friends from college arent from this country, they have degrees, but they did it the right way. Got student visas and became citizens."
: Earlier in this post you wrote,
: "An ILLEGAL, especially in this area for christs sake, wouldnt have a college degree that is required to do my job"

: You do realize that there are many illegals here with degrees don't you?

: So you don't think they can get a degree, but if they do, THEN you'll become friends with them. Is that it?

: I'll just let you explain to me how this isn't racist...BUD.

: You also wrote,
: "Out of all of these companies, mine pays probably one of the lowest in the business.. only because of the wage scale for this area."
: REPEAT:"because of the wage scale for this area"
: So apparently you should be able to see how outsourcing and the resultant lowering of wages for OTHER jobs can...and apparently HAS affected YOUR salary ALREADY. That "wage scale" affects EVERYBODY, reguardless of what training or education they have.
: Do YOU "Understand now"?

: There's no "jealousy" in my post, believe me. There's disgust.

I think real deal is doing an excellent job of tearing down JD posts. Keep it up!
