California hires workers from India to process unemployment claims
First the company makes you train the foreign worker replacing you, then after you're laid off the foreign worker processes your unemployment claim.

That article is aggravating from start to finish. It's bad enough to be laid off after losing your job to someone else rather than simply downsizing , but it's insulting to lose it in the way they are having to.

Isn't this but a logical consequence of the so-called "Global Marketplace" initiatives we (US govt and corporations) created and taught the rest of the world?

And this surprises you? I would have thought that they would have hired illegals to do that, seriously.

I think its awesome and I think America needs MUCH more of this.
...in your face America. Its time to take your medicine.

-foreigners coming to take our jobs? hogwash it could never happen - not in the USA
-besides they only do the jobs no other Americans want to do

That worm the liberals dangle in front of you is connected to a hook and no one wants to believe it until you are put on the stringer.

We wanted multiculturalism, we got it.
Welcome to the new world.

It's not "multiculturalism" - it's "out-sourcing" and we invented it and sold it to the world.
