Like it or not , the interaction between people will increase with some jobs coming over to India. I wonder if that w'd also be as acrimonious?
The political leaders from either side seem to be getting along very well though. But can the same be said about people?

No, he was born in India. I don't believe that he is an American citizen.Originally posted by Terimaki Tojay:
And so now, is this manager not an American of Indian origin?

I don't think that this was an absurd statement that sterotypes people. And it certainly doesn't spread misinformation. I stated a fact, the CIO is from India and he is outsourcing my friend's job to India. I never stated that the CIO was "Indian" or "American" or anything else. Explain to me how what I said is "misinformation".
By thw way, the CIO is a naturalized American citizen but that does not change the truth of what I wrote which is that the CIO is "from India".

You guys are way too sensitive. Read the topic of this forum. That is why I said "you guessed it". It had nothing to do with whether an Indian was more likely to outsource to India and everything to do with the topic, "Can Indians and Americans live in peace".Originally posted by Sadanand Murthy:
This statement of yours sounds like : "My job got outsourced to India. So the who made this decision or had a significant impact on the decision must have been India." Sounds like : "What do you expect; he is an Indian." This mentality is very dangerous.

It might be if we were talking about relations between blacks and whites. Because otherwise why even bring it to the discussion?Originally posted by Terimaki Tojay:
Can I say something like this: "I was mugged last night. You know who the mugger was? You guessed it, a black guy". Would that be appripriate?

The secret of how to be miserable is to constantly expect things are going to happen the way that they are "supposed" to happen.
You can have faith, which carries the understanding that you may be disappointed. Then there's being a willfully-blind idiot, which virtually guarantees it.

No, I did not guess it. My 1st guess actually was that he was an American. There are a lot of companies that have outsourced to India, China & Russia. And I can assure you that the CIO/CTO/CEO of all these companies are not Indians or Americans of Indian origin.

What effect do you think that this will have on his opinion of India?

This is something I would like to get confirmation on. I read two different articles that mentioned that the Indian government does not allow American (or other?) IT workers in their country to work (permanently?).
