Fastest growing occupations:
2000-2010: http://www.bls.gov/news.release/ecopro.t06.htm


this page looks like OLD NEWS, imho. probably a study published
in 1999 or 2000 and never up dated(?).

Doesn't look bad for computer professionals according to this list. One
wonders
whether they have factored in the global outsourcing of these jobs, also.


Agree - all but *two* of those occupations have that
vaguely similar aroma about them - that they can
trivially be shipped overseas, especially given that
the work product can be imported without the use of a
container ship! Jim


the business news (cable) channels and politicians have all
recently jumped on the fact that skilled jobs are "going overseas",
duh.... also very OLD news. --Loren
