Oh, well...

i used to think the talk about H1B visas was overblown but then i started watching who left the office and who stayed. One by one the guys who’d been training the new associates were gone, some without even goodbye emails. the rest of us just kept our heads down, hoping not to be noticed, hoping our badge would still work monday...

They say it's not about us, not about the people, only business. but every time someone leaves, their desk is filled the next week with someone quieter, someone faster, someone who isn't going to ask what happened to the promotion they were promised. you stop making jokes in the breakroom, stop checking the time, stop planning vacations... same thing just happened at walmart — layoffs in the morning, approvals for thousands of new visas by lunch.

tech used to feel bigger, messier, like something made by strange people with strange dreams. now it's meetings, checklists, sprints no one sprints through. even the errors feel designed. one morning you realize you’ve started spelling recieve wrong again and it hits you — you’re tired, really tired...

now they are going beyond h1b, now things are being pushed out completely, so jobs go overseas instead of imporitng people into the usa, so the usa loses jobs period.
