My job went to India

And all I got was this lousy t-shirt.

The outsourcing happened a few months ago. I'm now employed again, but this morning I was wearing a t-shirt from the old job and made the above joke to my wife. A light went on! Cafe Press!

So now I have a store, and I'm selling that t-shirt, along with some others a bumper sticker:

Please tell me what you think.

2. I'll play with it.

That's the first t-shirt I've done in years. The others were done at a t-shirt shop, not with software, so I was guessing how it would look.

4. It is tricky to flip back and forth, I know. I hope you put it out there!

It's exactly right. :)

5. I'm surprised it went to India

India is starting to get expensive.

Central America seems to be the new target. That's why the Republicans are working hard on FTAA and CAFTA.

7. I'm very sorry to hear

I'm retired from Delphi...
Another way of saying: "between jobs"

Something has to be done to stop the outsourcing of America.

8. Protectionism? They won't want to do that, which is ironic:

Bush and co. are engaging in what are increasingly isolationistic policies (though regarding Iran, the rest of the world is more or less in agreeance there's a problem).

It's a bizarre mishmash of philosophies.
