    I see that unionized IBM employees are planning a protest at their company’s upcoming annual meeting to speak out against several issues. But the one that stands out for me in the press release is this:

    IBM employees and retirees face many critical issues, such as the loss of jobs due to IBM's increased focus on offshoring…

    Wow! People who work for the number one service provider of outsourcing in the world are fighting job loss due to offshoring? I suppose the same kinds of protests went on two decades ago when members of IBM’s typing pools were shown the door as its PC business expanded.
