Oz staff refuse to train Indians OCTOBER 25, 2006  MELBOURNE: Upset at losing their jobs due to offshoring, IT workers in the St George Bank in Australia have have refused to train their Indian replacements.  The employees of the Bank were warned in September that they would lose their jobs and were told last Tuesday they would assist training new staff through a "buddy system", a TV channel reported today.  The bank has told 80 of its workers that their jobs will be moved to India.  "It was sickening that the bank was expecting them to do so," over 60 employees of the bank said adding they did not have any problem with their replacements but were upset with the bank.  One of the employees claimed that St George Bank did not help find them other work.
