"Outsourcers"
But why is it that almost everyone here discussing or referring to the subject, describes the workers to whom a job is outsourced as "outsourcers"?
They're "ousourcees".
The "outsourcer" is the person who does the outsourcing, i.e. the employer.
I swear that 90% of the time the word "outsourcers" is used in this forum, the intended meaning is that of "outsourcees". I suppose that makes it "right" because "language is a living thing" and "common parlance is common parlance"?
Maybe it's just an ever-recurring typo, because the letter "e" is next to "r" on the computer keyboard. Yes, of course, that must be it.
