Might as well just contract some Chinamen for 3x lower salaries and 40-50x higher quality output. Discuss. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5836534&forum_id=2#49682091)

Date: February 20th, 2026 8:03 AM Author: provocative parlor I mean Sony is Eastern but yeah. Supervising these guys is so much work and their health insurance costs like $27k/year and if they’re competent they’re like “$400k, champ, or I jump ship 😏 “ and they have chaotic resumes with one job every 11 months. And btw the yen is weak so paying these Nerds is even more expensive if they’re not cash flow positive. A more talented Jap probably costs like 50k USD (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5836534&forum_id=2#49682095)
