TECHNOLOGY = The FUTURE = SCREW TECHNOLOGY
In the early 80's I was educated as an Engineering Technologist (Associate
1984, Bachelor 1985, Layoffs 1987, 1989, and the final Layoff in 1991, when
newspaper ads for an Electronics Tech job led to hundreds of applicants a day,
all seeking what turned out to be a $7/hr job). Although most Bachelor
degreed person work in a field outside their major, I guess TECHNOLOGY
(Engineering Technologist), not being a Business Degree, did not count.
Desperate for work, I attended COMDEX (Computer Convention) and CES (Consumer
Electronics Show) in Las Vegas, seeking employment (both of which no longer have
a Job Faire section). Filling out the applications for
convention attendance, I was prompted to fill out the Hotel I would be staying
at (Mom's carpeted, un-insulated but air conditioned garage), my Company Name:
"ARCHURE" (now my registered trademark), and my Field: "SCREW
TECHNOLOGY"
SCREW TECHNOLOGY:
Since the MBA's (those degreed in Business, a "Masters in Business
Administration") laid off everyone (late 80's) in Electronics (now done
outside the USA for cheap labor), then laid off everyone in Manufacturing in the
90's (sending that outside the USA for cheap labor also), and now in the early
2000's aiming at pushing all Programming jobs to India, it looks like the MBA's
themselves are running out of people to lay off, and will soon have to start
laying off themselves (already happening), ending their stranglehold on American
Business.
SCREW BUSINESS:
Now we can use the MBA's to fill the slave labor positions which former
Electronics Techs and Manufacturing Engineers once held, such as Hotel Banquet
Porter Temp Jobs, Sewer Water Treatment Plant Workers, Taxi Cab Drivers, Bus
Persons (bus boy, bus woman), Telemarketers, Spammers, and Recyclers (of
plastic, aluminum, and food products from Apartment Complex Trash
Bins).
SHOW BUSINESS:
In the mean time, I have been moving up (Showroom Photographer). I am now
in my early 50's, an Aspiring Rock and Roll Star, which is where I started in
the first place in the late 60's. I only got education in Electronics just
to back up my career in Music (Associate in Fine Arts Music degree), so I would
not have to be a Hotel Banquet Porter, Sewer Water Treatment Plant Worker, Taxi
Cab Driver, Bus Person (bus boy, bus woman), Telemarketer, Spammer, or Recycler
(of plastic, aluminum, and food products from Apartment Complex Trash
Bins).
I'm glad I got my education in electronics
I'm glad I got my education in electronics
NOW IT'S YOUR TURN (of the screw):
We all know that "WHAT GOES AROUND COMES AROUND", and while I realize
that there are some decent persons in the world of Business, some decent persons
with MBA's, some people with Good Intent, unfortunately for their own karma (I can find little that is good about human beings. In my experience most of them are trash -Sigmund Freud
), the
percentage of the good ones is far less than the mal intented ones, engage in immediate
fiscal gratification, at the long term expense of entire corporations, and their
laid off workers (leaving only the shell of a company left, buildings and used
tools up for bid, while the MBA's have moved their hacking to the next
corporation, with staff reductions, resulting in quality reductions, resulting
in eventual loss of contracts, and more layoffs). So now that the MBA's
have virtually run out of major U.S. corporations to hack and ruin (and European
owned corporations who are faithful to their employees and don't lay them off
upon "benefit eligibility", wont let the MBA's in), there is now NO
ONE LEFT TO LAY OFF BUT THEMSELVES. Start Hacking (who has more Seniority?
who's Education is worth more? who's Hacking Experience is more valuable?, who
laid off the most good workers? they will have to decide amongst themselves
(draw straws). Who will be next to go? Another MBA. But there
is plenty for them to do: Hotel Banquet Porter, Sewer Water Treatment
Plant Worker, Taxi Cab Driver, Bus Person (bus boy, bus woman), Telemarketer,
Spammer, or Recycler (of plastic, aluminum, and food products from Apartment
Complex Trash Bins), and there is always SCREW TECHNOLOGY (except they might
have to move to Mexico or China or Taiwan or India to get low pay positions in
that field, if those countries will let them in, and they need those jobs for
their own people).
SCREW TECHNOLOGY.
