Party like it's 1999?
I still see about as many headhunter e-mails and field about as many phone calls as I did in 1999. Most of them are a) projects related to Homeland Security, or b) projects that prepare in-house resources to be offshored. Do I take the contracts? Heck, yes. Am I roundly hated by the people who thought they had stable jobs? You bet. Then again, I also take customizing FOSS contracts, which were offshored from the Netherlands and Sweden, so I can also be roundly hated by their citizens too.

Contractism: it's the newest reason to hate people as a group.
