You are right. I jumped to conclusions. I just assumed they were h1b's because of their thick/strong accents and unamericanized names.

So just being on H1B is bad now?

No? I neither said nor implied anything negative about the character of h1b's.

Bloomberg writes article about Cisco's bias for hiring h1b's over US workers.

I mention my anecdotal experience with Bloomberg where nearly everyone I interacted with was not US born and had thick accents.

I thought the irony was funny. Don't twist my words.
