I heard exactly this from a Canadian friend working in the US over the
past 12 months. During that time, he's seen his paycheck decrease by
almost 40%...
Quoting Ethan Post <post.ethan@xxxxxxxxx>:
Interesting article on the effects of the dollar's fall on
outsourcing. Would be interesting to hear a few of you who are perhaps
feeling these effects to comment.

"The depreciating dollar may prove lethal to outsourcing. Employees
hired by US companies based in foreign countries usually convert
earned US dollars into their national currencies. A worker based in a
country with an appreciating currency will get less money when paid
the same amount of dollars."
