<<How is this different from competition for any other job,>

*The jobs you (presumably) and I are used to pay a bit more.
*Most jobs we take don't require you to go through the "interview" process on a daily basis.
*Most of us on this board are in a better position to leave the auction when the bidding gets unpalatably low.
*I don't think either of us would care to pay California expenses on a Chavez Street wage, not to mention saving a big chunk of that wage and shipping it back home.
*These guys work harder than I've ever had to work. Don't know about you

And this may be a view of the future for the rest of us. There is someone in Asia or South America bidding for many of our jobs and they will bid on new ones soon. If they don't outbid you, they are outbidding your customer, who will no longer afford whatever you're selling. Happy Monday.
