What MSN Careerbuilder says about future jobs - embrace the trend
“The prediction from the Bureau of Labor Statistics is that by 2010, 65 percent of us won’t be employees. We will be employed, but not employees,” Geary comments. “Companies want to be profitable and lean, so it’s important for older workers to be aware and to embrace the trend.” Because health care comprises so many types of jobs, and can accommodate a broad spectrum of work schedules, job changers in this field have their choice of where and when to work.


Isn't slavery ducky? :party:

So that means we'll have a single-payer health care system, to make this transition easier WHILE putting America toward the top of developed nations in terms of health care status?


And the 10 top growing fields (projected values, not reality-based) here:

1. Quite a coincidence that MSN should have this story, with Microsoft
being the worst of the employee misclassification offenders. :grr:

2. Nobody's perfect...
:shrug:

They also tolerate piracy.

Bizarre for a company that claims to dislike piracy and be a leading member of the BSA. But then, marketing was never my strong point... One would just think Microsoft would treat their own IP with more consideration? A person who sells my own IP, I can understand why pirates are not liked...
