The Outsourcer’s Apprentice

If you’re like us, you’re already signed up at Elance.com and are giddily calculating your future earnings based on undercutting the $4/hr minimum rate charged by Junaidullahkhan in Islamabad, Pakistan. 

What’s that you say? Your unique contribution to the Entertainment Advertising Arts and Sciences is too culturally specific to ever be outsourced out of the 310, 323 or 818 area codes? Your field of expertise is too arcane to be understood by some backwater pixel pusher in Isyoumadad, Pakistan? You alone know the secret combination of fonts and Photoshop filters that puts buttocks in theatre seats?

Doubtless you’ve been way too busy wasting billable time on The Innernets to notice all those advertising budgets migrating to online banners and ads. Doubly doubtless you’ve logged so many hours staring dazedly into your monitor that you missed your Mister Jones moment - when you know something’s happening, but you don’t know what it is.

You hand in your ticket
And you go watch the geek
Who immediately walks up to you
When he hears you speak
And says, "How does it feel
To be such a freak?"
And you say, "Impossible"
As he hands you a bone

Because something is happening here
But you don't know what it is
Do you, Mister Jones?

Where's the United Nations to enforce a police-state for proper grammar?

Sorry, J.B. Blockhead, but in the New World Order, a command of the American language will be equal in value to the American dollar.
