alt text: 18 of our 40 employees are located in the Philippines. Insanely competent, great judgement, and $5 per hour. If you run a small business and don't have overseas help you're at a disadvantage

It's wild that people celebrate folks sending jobs overseas as "smart business people", but then demonize workers asking for wages to keep to with inflation as "greedy".

I wonder if this guy's anti-immigration too.

[–] PeriodicallyPedantic@lemmy.ca 7 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Yes, but not anti temporary-migrant-workers.

Or anti-cheap visa workers that can be abused and threatened with being sent home.

What about those that send jobs overseas without the demonizing? Should they be equally criticized?

[–] PeriodicallyPedantic@lemmy.ca 11 points 8 months ago

The people doing the demonizing of workers are the ones praising the business owners. Although sometime they're also business owners themselves, I was more talking about financial reporters, TV personalities, and bootlickers.

But, yes.
