Comment Re:Apart from bad mouthing Microsoft... (Score 1) 429
I am CS major senior in Chicago.
However, I am also interested in economics... what microsoft is doing seems to make sense, it's not necessarily bad for the economy, that's just how economics work. The entire world is a global economy now, and all that means is that if you want a high paying job you will just have to attain unique skills. The basic kind of programming Microsoft needs done is not any more skilled than most secratary's jobs. It might as well be factory jobs they are exporting. The CS majors who are losing thier jobs, should either move to china; stop whining and get another job; or grow up and learn something unique and just simply be better than the next guy. Quit whining about them working for less.
Welcome to the global economy boys... you can't just sit on your cozy job anymore, and everyone everywhere is going to benifit from you losing that job to a harder working cheaper laborer, YOU LAZY BASTARDS!
