Here's one for you programmers out there. A US employee in a critical
infrastructure job, outsourced all his work to a company in China.
This US employee's work was so good that for many months, he was
considered a top coder in his company.
The employee's day consisted of surfing the web ~ the whole day. In
fact he outsourced work from several other companies too and collected
thousands of dollars in pay for that work.

Hell, I would hire Bob in a heartbeat, or kick him upstairs to upper
management, where that type of enterprising thought would be perfectly
in line with corporate interests.

I seriously question the authenticity of this "story". I'd run it by SNOPES or the like in a few weeks.
Funny though.
