I dont think people that support WFH understand the precedent this is setting. If this really becomes standard and generally accepted in the corporate world, do they not understand there is no reason for that company to hire from the local area anymore. They are going to pick from 5 billion third worlders that are all learning english and getting degrees for pennies to do your job for you. They do not give a fuck. WFH is not some wagie revolution, its an evolution in the next stage of post industrial economies, which is making you compete against the entire fucking world for a position at whatever corp you work at that doesnt give a fuck about you. I would not support this shit for a second if I was an office wagie because it is destroying the only thing is giving you job security, which is being able to commute to said office you hate. You'll get whats coming.

Most office work is not that demanding, its just gatekept by needing a college degree which usually doesnt apply to the actual experience in the job. Women overehelmingly are going to be replaced in the office workforce because the majority of theur jobs are make work jobs that were only needed when people interacted at the office, and a pajeet could do theur job better. Unless youre a very experienced engineer or designer of some kind, or a very good salesman, theyre going to pay a pajeet or nigerian to save paying someone 10x as much.

This is already happening before pandemic induced WFH, it's called outsourcing retard. Also some remote jobs have region restrictions meaning you still have to be in the country to work remote.

Not in post industrial office jobs. Most are still done by natives. The transition from industrial to post industrial was because of outsourcing. Once they outsource all the jobs created by post industrialism all that will be left are fast food wagies and tradesmen, which are already being filled by immigrants overwhelmingly. Middle class native office wagies are going to be forced to settle for less.

So the problem is in remote work but it is greedy as fuck corporations, as always. Thanks for the insight.

Yes, this is occuring at 1 place that I know of. I applied at Wikipedia for a senior dev position. I interviewed with one of their HR girl based in southern Brazil. Felt kind of awkward telling her my salary requirements (150-200K), considering where she was from.

No matter though. Everyone prefers developers who have US degrees, New York and California jobs, with years of experience and no gaps. I fit all of those. I demand remote work and the same wages as non-remote, or I move on to the next one.

Maybe for brainless data-entry style jobs; anything requiring human interaction is sticky with people wanting plain-English speaking reps. Literally did a big fortune 50 outsourcing project a few years ago so have some insight from that can expand if anyone's interested. Long story short- anything requiring tact, or "soft touch" or where the customer has the ability to throw their weight around won't be outsourced for a long time.

exactly, and almost everyone has the same feeling. Its one thing for something like comcast or a local power company outsourcing their client reps because you literally can't switch, but most industry's have some level of competition. Like if my company outsources it's HR functions to another business, there are a million different options to chose from, and I can specifically say that we will avoid anywhere we have to settle for a pajeet whenever we call in. And so many things are like this; all else equal would you pay a slight premium for a teacher who speaks proper english?

At the end of the day business is about human interaction and outsourced employees result in a nonzero level of friction introduced into these interactions. This non zero level of friction is taken into account when making decisions.

Ah the old boomer mindset of warming seats in the office.

It was the boomers themselves that actually popularised outsourcing remotely to places like India to save money. And a lot of individual contributors were replaced in this way. GenX and to a lesser extent older GenY told them it was going to be a bad idea, but they did it anyway.

Being able to hire at least 3-4 Pajeets for every worker was just too tempting. Even if they're 'not that good' they thought, if we just hire enough of them, toss them into teams or onto existing teams there's more capacity for projects and that all important 'headcount' metric which can be used for budgets and political battles.

What I find ironic is that now we get told by boomers (and those gullible enough to believe their lies) that because of remote work we're all going to be replaced. Nonsense. Outsourcing the lower level people is something that if they wanted to do more of, they'd have done it. They haven't increased it because: it's been largely a disaster. And also even places that still 'see the benefits' know it's like diluting the lemonade, there's only so much tap water you can add before it stops being the same quality. So assume for the lower level grunts the ratio is more less set already.

It's actually the boomer management layers that has the most to lose from remote work long term because for the first time ever really, upper management can see that management in the layers below can be done for 2+ years from anywhere, then why not outsource that as well? This is why boomer managers are pushing so hard for return to the office, to save their own hide. Ironically enough I know of two corporate middle managers that have been let go because they pushed RTO hard and half the people under them quit. I work for a large corporate that tried to force contractors all back to the office and so many of them quit that they decided to put that 'on hold' and try to push the employees in instead.

> not in post industrial office jobs
You clearly have never had a "post industrial office job". Outsourcing has been happening for YEARS. Take call centers for example. I'm a Software Engineer. Tech companies have been attempting to outsource work for at least 2 decades. They eventually realize, "oh shit, these dipshits we hired for pennies are actually dumb. They got us our first milestone, but the second one, which only requires 1/10th the total work, took twice as long as the first milestone." Then they go back to regular American workers because they took the L on paying dipshits to shit all over their codebase. Then they pay competent natives to unfuck the codebase at a premium. Case and point:
> I worked for major "gaming" company (read "gaming" as gambling)
> Shitalian Execs all create their own retard pet-projects
> One Shitalian finds a shady Caribbean company to contract in order to build his retard pet-project
> Doesn't do any due-diligence on the company, just sees their SUPER CHEAP compared to other companies he received quotes from
> Proceeds to wait a year for a working prototype
> They've been playing shell games with vaporware like those street hustlers
> Never produce a damn thing in over a year
> Internal team at HQ finds out about this pet project contract, hands the working prototype to my team
> We analyze everything, deem it completely useless
> Shitalian Exec doesn't mention that this contract GUARANTEES these absolute street shitters 2 years of pay
> They fly what appear to be Venezuelan high school kids into the office for a projected 2 weeks where we'll work with them to unfuck their codebase
> They are there for all of 3 days before we convince the Director of Engineering to cancel this shit, pay the contract (really a ransom) out and never do business with them again
> We were asked to create a completely new software prototype in 4 months, we all demanded 50k bonuses and received them.
