All:
Over the past few weeks, I have had several friends tell me that their projects are moving to India, and that they are no longer needed.
I've also had other friends tell me that I should get out of the high tech industry, as it's future is uncertain at best, and that many jobs are moving to other countries.
After seeing what happened to manufacturing: companies moved to from country to country looking for cheap salaries, no benefits, and no environmental laws to hinder them, I wonder if this could happen to tech writing?
