september august displaced techies allow american workers to participate in the global economy friday december 21 2007 no longer updating this blog so it should be pretty obvious i am no longer updating this blog for those of you who wondered i had a job lined up when i was laid off back in 06 it was basically the best thing that could have happened to me i still think outsourcing just to flatten the world is bad for everyone involved i buy into the wikinomics way of thinking that our industry shouldn t commoditize our skills we should be reaching out and collaborating globally not trying to flatten the world s culture into a homogenous bland working machine i am sure i will be talking about this on my other blog i still post about displaced techie topis there i will leave displacedtechies up for history s sake because i am proud of what we tried to do friday december 21 2006 posted by gmminks friday june 30 2006 laid off again yesterday i was laid off again in the wrong group during a re org basically so if you are in my local area and have opportunities shoot them my way the one thing i do want to say is that as workers we all need to work at making personal connections in our workplace i truly believe that if workers connected with each other no matter where you are from we could start standing up when we are treated like cattle think about it most it workers no longer expect to be at a job for a prolonged period of time however all of us want that security we want to know we have money to have shelter and food that is why we allow our employers to treat us like cattle driving and prodding us along we bite our tongues and refuse to make waves when we see injustices occur even if they are happening to ourselves because we don t want to be the troublemaker the crazy cow that they get rid off first this point was driven home to me yesterday while i was cleaning out my cube my entire group and several other work colleagues were pretty sure what my 4 00 meeting would be about so everyone came to talk to me as i packed up the hr rep shooed them away telling them they could not talk to me then she told me that i could not talk to them not even to say goodbye so even though i was let go from no fault of my own i had to behave as if i had no connection to these people at all as if now since i was being herded down a different shoot i would forget all about the rest of the herd everyone mobbed me when i was leaving and hugged me and said goodbye which made me proud and happy when we make these personal connections and create communities in our workplaces it makes it harder for management to treat us like pawns their goal is to redeploy their resources us however they see fit even if that means chucking them they want a workforce that will work whenever and wherever they say without so much as a moo if we build communities at work it makes it harder for them to do that so no matter what your nationality get to know the people you work with go to lunch with them ask how their families are understand how being on a visa affects them understand how being an american worker in today s it world affects them most of all stop allowing employers to treat us as cattle 06 30 am friday june 30 2006 posted by gmminks link buy american union jean company onshore alternatives www buympc com rss xml support bloggers
