First my company laid off most of the local IT folks in favor of cheaper 24/7 hour offshore support a few years ago, then….

They cut back offshore to 5 days, 18 hours. Then they cut back to 12 hours, covering US hours. Was told this morning, they are shifting to 10am-7PM IST for support. This means that our HQ in EDT will basically get 1 hour of overlap, 8:30-9:30am EDT. Also all my meetings with my offshore support teams are being moved to around 5am my time. Oh, and I am expected to cover normal 9-5 EDT to backfill the support team.
