I've been thinking about job security and what opportunities may come my way in the future. And as far as I can tell my future is looking grim. Presently, the current trend in the country is outsourcing, from I.T. to call centers to other forms of man power. Since labor is relatively cheap in developing countries, the often marketing point is the prices of the services offered. Since there is no regulation against this employers and also individuals are able to price their services in any way they want which is good... In a perfect world of course. This is especially true in the I.T. industry were the number of people selling them short in order to make a quick buck are increasing day by day.

This is were it gets complicated, since the financial incentive is taken away there is little motivation left if not none to produce exceptional results, or inspirational at the very least. This in my opinion perpetually dries up the creative pool which should push this industry or any industry forward toward innovation.

We all have monetary concerns, the sad part is most of us can't see passed through the short term benefits. Yes, we may earn some percentage lower of what's being charge by normally, but sooner or later prices will eventually go down in order to be competitive. Up to a point were prices have hit rock bottom and there is nothing left for the end worker. By nothing I mean just enough to get by, nothing more, maybe something less. This is a common truth, most of us work to live, it is a rarity to see people who live to work; people who actually love what they do and push their profession forward and nudges society a bit.

Idealistic as it may seem, it would be better if money worked for us instead of us working for money. It should be something that complements life and not the other way around. It may sound like a cliche but it is very factual.
