Those that you call Third Country Nationals are in fact Sub Contractor Workers (Scw’s) you should be better informed, but you have the balls to write something like this without knowing the real facts. I am a Third Country National, what does that means? That I was hired from a foreign country, yes as you said and we are being paid the same amount of money that any other American is being paid here. Now KBR hires companies to fulfill the labor, cleaning and laundry operations, but KBR does not set the quantities that the workers of this companies should get, that is the Sub Contractor’s responsibility, they decide how much they pay and from where they hire the people. The same happens with Dfac (dining facilities). I hope this illustrate you a little bit more on the proper terms to be used.
