Stunning Incompetence: 3rd World Engineers
by James Buchanan
There is an illusion that Indian and Middle Eastern foreigners allowed in the US are -at least- competent in whatever scientific field they claim to know. Nothing could be further from the truth. Modern-day management wants cheap engineers, not good ones. Sometimes management will hire one or two good American engineers and then “supplement” the work force with several cheap Third Worlders. The Third World engineers frequently ask for less pay and so they get hired before White American engineers. The truth is they aren’t even worth the reduced salaries. Often, White engineers are only hired after months of blundering by an Indian or Pakistani. Sometimes a company just refuses to admit its Third World engineers are no good, and it begins a long downward slide to incompetence and bankruptcy.
Here are just a few engineer horror stories of Third World incompetence at US corporations:
The Lying Bangladeshi
One company had a wide range of engineers both bad and good. One American engineer who was excellent at what he did was increasingly badgered by a Bangladeshi. The Third World engineer had bragged that he was a top graduate of a “great” university in Bangladesh. The American engineer eventually had to explain that he was there to do work, not to be a full time tutor to an (obviously incompetent) novice. The Bangladeshi “engineer” could not even do basic trigonometry and was asking the Americans how to do that. His resume claimed extensive experience with design software, which he couldn’t operate at all. Bangladesh -by the way- is so backward and the people there so useless that the nation of India has built a fence to keep inept Bangladeshis from invading their country. (more…)
