Coal miners are the real problem, smh.

As you sit in your office pushing paper, handing out judgement on issues you don't understand fully.
Hmm, I dunno. The Welsh part of my family were coal miners once upon a time. Sure change is difficult, but hey sometimes you need to do it. Mine did so by moving away or retraining. Drivers will likely face a similar future with automatic driving vehicles. Should be interesting.

Juvenile. What is contributing? Is working at McDonald's contributing? What about a teacher? How about somebody working at a non-profit to aid the homeless?



It's clear you haven't put much thought into this. Lol.




No and I don't care
Perhaps that needs clarifying. Contributing would be one who puts more into the system financially than they take out.

You should look up what that GOP guy said. It's pretty interesting. That was the party the US elected into power - after all.
 
Yup. A friend of mine at a large company had an issue where they were doing interviews and the person who showed up after they hired them on was totally different than who was interviewed.

People who don't work in technology don't really understand any of this. They think people coming over on H1B visas are like genius mathematicians or something but the vast majority are like run of the mill JavaScript devs.

But hey keep telling yourself that this is bad for the US. Meanwhile Americans are addicted to opioids and can't get into masters or PHD programs.

Pathetic.

I wish I could like this posts a thousand times. Your example is one of such I have been through. I have worked with a guy who knew nothing and would just fiddle around the laptop and will be on the phone getting help on coding from somebody else on other side. I have seen people who have written 5 years of Java programming and can't even do a simple sorting on whiteboard. People have admitted that their vendor companies compiles interview questions and pass them on to the next candidate.

Look at all the resumes of Indian candidate. Many of them will have fake experiences at the beginning of the career.

When I came to this country, my vendor wanted to write fake stuff on my resume and I stood up against it and in fact I changed the company. It's very highly abused. It's almost similar to human trafficking if you check how the immigrants live their lives at early stages in USA.

A-to-the-MEN.

I am totally on board with this. Thank you Mr. President.

If Trump stop being cozy with Ryan and McConnell there would be more and better positive benefits to America like this.

Instead Trump supports Ryan's (who never really supported Trump) mind mindbogglingly flawed plans.

You must have me confused with a member of the Trump Administration.
Nope, I've got you pegged as someone who thinks they know everything and can sum up world problems in 3 word sentences.

I'm not in the coal industry but if you came in to my business and tried to tell me to switch jobs because you don't like what I do, you'd get a swift kick in the ass and out the door you would go. I can do that because Indiana respects business owners rights to refuse service to anyone they see fit.

Many lie on their resume. I have interviewed many people from India, and was told that I could not hold their false info in their resume against them as it is their culture. Also, you are correct, most do not have the "Talent" that they seem to be getting credit for (There are exceptions).

But it's not that. If the industry I was raised in, what I chose to focus my school work around, if that started to fail I'd have to move to. Because industries come and go. To expect permanent job safety is childish.
