The following was an electronic mail that I sent to a Silicone Valley company, Electronics for Imaging (EFI), that was in the news lately for bringing over some employees from India and thinking they could get away with paying them in Rupees instead of Dollars. Evidently this little clerical SNAFU also extended into their overtime pay as well. There were several bay area papers that glommed onto the story but I read about it here on the good 'ol Daily Kos.

The original story can be found under the title Silicon Valley company busted for paying Indian workers $1.21 an hour in America, by Eric Hopp. Since I can't figure out how to imbed a link here to save my life you'll have to look on the Diaries list to find it. I was writing this little tome because I had too much nervous energy from the World's Series. I put so much effort into it so I thought I'd share it with you, my public. Well, not my public per se, but you know what I mean.
