If 80% of the people that work in your location are from India, what should that tell you?

Management prostitutes them in other ways. It is difficult to change employers under the H1B program. Managers treat them like crap. They just have to take it. They frequently "bend my ear" once they discover that I'm an individualist and I consider management as a kind of adversary. That means that anything they say to me goes no further. I practice a "Vegas Rule" in the snack kiosk. One of them had their tax withholding done wrong and showed me the pay stub. I showed her online how to file a complaint with the Department of Labor. She wouldn't do it out of fear of getting her visa cancelled.

I work in a building of more than 1,000 people. Something like 80% of them are from India. This is in metro Dallas. My workplace, to quote Obama, "Doesn't look like America". It looks like India. This is strange. What gives? I have heard some of the few Americans that do work there tell me that they feel like they are being "managed out". I was brought in as a contractor because they had a very hard time finding someone with experience of a certain system that I happened to have.

Are they engineers? It's similar where I work. There's a shortage of good engineers in the US because most kids here take useless majors, and then whine when they can't get jobs and have tons of student loans to pay off.
