My manager was telling me about this, as a software developer myself I'm not sure if he was trying to give me ideas...

Fair play to the guy, id have promoted him for showing initiative.

Now go and watch "Office Space", and a few Dilbert cartoons, it would fit right in. Brilliant.

To be fair I'm an IT consultant working for an American Corporation and those were my first thoughts however it seems to be going to opposite way now as offshoring isnt as cheap as it first seems. As I'm the only person in my team outside North America i feel a little vulnerable anyway, I just make ensure I get involved in as much domestic as well as international work as possible :wink:

I am a Support Service Delivery Manager in IT and if one of my customers has an outsourced IT department they have to pay more for support.

 

So its swings and round about's really!
