An employee reportedly asked to go remote. Her CEO says he outsourced her job to India instead

So they should work for lower wages...

They should compete. When you go to the store to purchase an item, do you buy the most expensive item on the shelf or the one of similar quality that costs less? Labor is a product. If you are not aware of that, then all that fine free education that you received was for naught.

Do you want them to work harder? Longer? How would you like them to compete?

Yep, that free education was for nothing. Do you think someone told Jeff Bezos how to compete with Walmart? Sears? Figure it out moron. Nobody ever got ahead by waiting for the government to do it for them.

Everyone is outsourceable. If you're not the boss, you're going to be replaced. In fact, if you are the boss...you're going to be replaced too (probably).

but the ladies will never be able to replace me and my impressive package

The danger of going remote is that it's already been proven that the job can be outsourced.....You proved it yourself.

The downside is that they save 40% on labor costs and we get 60% worst customer service. I mean, they know they weren't hired for the /quality/ of their service!
