Most of the people in the H-1B program should not be in the first place. Not only do they keep American's from getting jobs but most companies abuse the H-1B program and the people in it to pay dirt wages for skilled work.

From the post:

>The US Citizenship and Immigration Service (USCIS) last October proposed new rules to reform the H-1B visa program following its acknowledgement of widespread fraud in April last year. At that time, USCIS, part of the Department of Homeland Security, announced it had "undertaken extensive fraud investigations" based on suspicions that certain employers – such as some IT outsourcers – were attempting to abuse the H-1B lottery process by submitting multiple visa applications for the same person.

Just end the program. No work visas for everyone. Go the fuck home.

Almost everyone of of them that I interview is incapable of actually doing the work. We'd be screwed if we didn't require them to complete a practical exam. For fucking servicenow development. That's how bad it is. They lie through their teeth, use chatgpt to answer questions, you can't understand half of what they say, and I swear to god they're basically soulless. They have no personalities, nothing really going on in their eyes, just like they're on autopilot, like really smart monkeys or something, somewhere between ape and human. Not all of them but most of them. All of them that I've interviewed. I did know two really smart ones, but I'm pretty sure they were upper caste, they weren't like the mongoloids coming in on H1Bs.

And what a bullshit process. You pay a bunch of money to hire an unqualified candidate that probably won't be there in three years and gives everyone in the office bed bugs. It's bullshit.

I'm forced to interview them. My company is going woke. I interviewed elsewhere this afternoon. No idea if they're woke. They didn't ask me my pronouns so I'm hopeful.

A group I work with were trying to hire on 3 people. They ended up cycling through 5-6 H-1B's before the team told the manager they would only work with a prem resident or citizen. So far all of the 'new' hires are still there.

Attempting to work with the H-1B's was impossible. Even if they could follow written instructions they would find some way to either screw up or take a week to get done with something that should take an hour.
