U.S. Employee Outsourced His Job to China, Watched Cat Videos Instead

OK I didn't read the article. If he did that then well done.

But I still don't get the looking at cats thing. Or is that just the press marketing line?

Maybe it's just me, but wasting my time is the most depressing thing I can do. And I expect the same for others. If he's found a better way to structure the company, he should use that talent to benefit himself or someone else or whatever. Not read fucking reddit. I mean that place is the most negative energy place I've ever seen.

If I can read reddit and make a million in cash I consider that productive.

Do you really think that's all he did all day? Come on man. There's a limit to how many cat video's anyone can watch.

A guy smart enough to outsource his job like that will have been doing something, his work just don't know about it and the media want to make it seem like he was cheating his workplace.
 
Yeah, he certainly lacked the desire for climbing the corporate ladder, but in case you didn't notice, he made 100K+ USD in addition to having jobs on the side which he also outsourced. So why would anyone want to suck up to their bosses and go to lame meetings when they could pull down that money doing nothing all day long? Dude is probably a cash millionaire.

He hacked the system and it rewarded him. A true hero.

It's not just 100k.

"This particular company wasn't Bob's only victim; the Verizon report said he similarly scammed "multiple companies in the area," earning several hundred thousand dollars a year, while the outsourced Chinese firm earned around $50,000 annually."
 
This guy is my new hero! Too bad he got caught :(

Did he do anything illegal? I think not. He made out like a bandit and is probably considering which tropical island will serve as his early retirement home.
 
I dont see how its a scam really.

a company hires you to get a job done plain and simple. if you get it done right, on time, and didnt do anything illegal I can hardly see where its a scam.

They hire a US worker, inhouse to get the job done. The reason they do that is to avoid company secrets + software being leaked out, they could have easily done the same thing. He let them log in over a VPN to the company servers, and access company code, which could've easily been leaked and duplicated by some company in China.

Or not read reddit and make 2 million in cash instead?
So I agree that he was stupid for wasting his time (time is one of the biggest resource of a smart man) like that.
