Keep your hats handy, tech jobs are again on the rise (after a slowdown that never went negative).

Now if I could just finish my degree and get that Network Admin position I’ve been drooling over. 😛
It is hard when you have two little ones at home and working full time, there just isn’t much time left for schoolwork at the end of the day. 🙁

Sure, there’s plenty of need for technology “workers”. Just don’t expect them to be filled by U.S. Citizens. Offshoring and outsourcing are here to stay.

The latest volley on the H1-B battlefront:

Notice how they talked up MicroSoft’s contribution to the Seattle job market, but fail to mention that MS is opening a new facility just over the border in Vancouver. Why? Because Canada doesn’t limit the number of foreign workers the way the U.S. does.

Wonder what the long term impact of this will be on the Seattle housing market, especially if this becomes a new trend?

There isn’t a shortage of qualified U.S. workers, only a shortage of ones that can afford to pay off their college loans (and feed their families) on a third-word salary.
