I'm glad we're all having fun, lol..but...at some point, reality has to step in - bummer.
The princely sums of 300 a week aren't keeping people people from working. No matter how hard a person believes it, no matter how much trouble they have filling their particular work order - it just isn't true...and the longer they continue to advance this fantasy rather than solve their particular recruitment issue...the longer their order will remain unfilled.
The usual hiring networks and levers were destroyed by the plague. Workers have taken other jobs after the wave of shutdowns - moved on.... or simply died. The expansion of UI benefits has produced no difference in the rate at which employees return to work nor is there any actual labor shortage in the united states produced by benefits - the correlation between benefits and labor runs in the exact opposite direction. States with more generous benefits have more employables seeking work - full stop.
Fact free politics and governance will not fill the empty position at your local deli counter. Amusingly enough, vaccination would - the one thing the same cohort that peddles this bullshit is increasingly deadset against. People really will go back to starvation wages if they don't also worry that they won't merely starve ..but die, and maybe kill a loved on their way out. It's right there, the us hasn't changed so much that you can't whip the poors into enriching you at their expense.
You just have to put in the work. You don't even have to put in any work making the job better or pay better - you just have to make the candidate feel better........ever was it thus.
Fucking....Lazy...Employers. So used to sucking the government tit with welfare wages that they don't know what to do when, as they have it, the government competes with them on the endless race to the bottom.
