[ale] OT: H1B: PLEASE DISREGARD EARLIER POSTS

[Jerald Sheets]

For a Senior UNIX  Systems Administrator with a Bachelor's (Master's
preferred), TS/SCI who managed the deployment of the new Homeland Security
database?  Minimum experience of 15 years with a whole pile of programming
languages.

Goodness!  

Why can H1B's get TS?  When I had mine, no internationals could carry a TS
clearance.


I've got considerably less experience than listed above, and make more than
70k.  Those of us with piles of experience can ask for (and get) those kinds
of salaries even today.

Well, just to play Devil's advocate-- perhaps the job wasn't *worth* the
70k?  Even 50k is a pretty decent salary, you know...
