Quoting: Anonymous Coward 80264879 The whole minimum wage sector has burn out. If you don't force the people to pay a living wage... this is what happens. Tierd of see good people working 2 - 3 jobs to pay for the same nessecities... as the rest of the world... I see them. I know most of GLP was against the living wage, due to the egoic competitive nature of the insecurity they feel inside... but maybe people will start realizing... $15/hr would get a lot of these people back up on their OWN feet instead of unemployment. I can see that. You should also see if low skilled people make a living wage then higher skilled people will trained skillsets who work more stressful jobs will demand a living wage + more. In other words whats to keep an stressed out engineer from becoming a sandwich artist and smoking pot all day. Once you take away motivation to do stressful work nobody will want to do it. Thats how bridges collapse and fod deosnt get to grocery store and you become a 3rd world country where doctors are poor. You see the connections? |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 73888412 Some of the restaurants are having to close on the weekends because they dont have workers. I have never seen this before. And, it isnt like it is something that gradually started to happen. It started happening all at once. The whole “can’t find employees” is total bullshit. Don’t believe it? Go place a random job add up pretending to be an employer and you will be bombarded by resumes and people applying for the job. These big corporations are full of shit and are partaking in the economic collapse by closing their doors on purpose and claiming they can’t find workers. It’s bullshit. They got their orders from above to close. There may be some truth this, I have found that several positions where I went through 2 or 3 rounds of interviews ended with the recruiter stating the position had been pulled. Sure, they could have been lieing (or is it lying) to me. Good thing for me the work I do requires minimal writing cause I definitely am not qualified where the position requires great grammar. One of the things I do is tell stories with pictures, charts, and flat out mounds of data boiled down to actionable insights. OU8122 |

WALMART has been the main store open during the last 2 yrs. they hired extra work in case of workers getting infected.all of a sudden they have too few? BS. u are being led to the AI basket of goodies. be careful. what comes with it? less jobs. more poverty. less goods and no services. less need for slaves. welcome to Idocracy. watch the movie if u haven't. you will wake up soon.
