HP Eliminates 15,000 Jobs

CNet is running with a story that HP is going to cut close to 15,000 jobs next week. If you're worrying about what's going to happen to your job, have you considered "individual outsourcing" -- where you personally find somebody in India to do your job, pocket the difference, and spend your time looking for new work?

"About a year ago I hired a developer in India to do my job. I pay him $12,000 out of the $67,000 I get. He's happy to have the work. I'm happy that I have to work only 90 minutes a day just supervising the code. My employer thinks I'm telecommuting. Now I'm considering getting a second job and doing the same thing."
