Ask any business owner and they'll give you one biased perspective. Here's anecdotal evidence. I go to a lot of restaurants and bars in a big hospitality town and I've never been delayed, refused a seat, waited on a meal because they didn't have enough help. And let's be clear. This is only a hospitality/service industry issue. A field that has historically paid shit wages. Businesses have had to start giving signing bonuses to entice people. Bormio thinks adding 1.4 million jobs in 3 months and wait staff getting signing bonuses is a disaster. 🤡 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People who are working are getting paid more and those who aren't are getting higher unemployment checks until September. Somehow you are whining about this outcome. What a bozo. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cat_Scratch Posted May 8, 2021 Report Share Posted May 8, 2021 Of course they have to work for 3 months or more or pay back the bonus. Managers have to kiss employee's asses to keep them... Some restaurants are closing on Mondays in Brevard because they are under staffed. Some states are going to stop paying unemployment because people are refusing to work. Wonder how long this is going to work out before America is bankrupt. How long until we pay higher taxes to fight back the deficit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atticus Finch Posted June 7, 2021 Report Share Posted June 7, 2021 Not a lot of snark this weekend from Dr. Quack. I kept waiting for him to post this but it never came. 🤷♂️ U.S. economy added 559K jobs in May and unemployment fell to 5.8% 559,000 jobs added to the economy in May, according to latest US jobs report. The unemployment rate fell from 6.1% to 5.8%. Oxford Economics expects the economy to add a record 8 million jobs in 2021 as unemployment falls to 4.3% by the end of the year.

That was a lukewarm jobs report and virtually everyone on Wall Street said so. There are at least 8 million job openings in the US and 11 million getting unemployment checks.

Atticus Finch Posted August 6, 2021 Report Share Posted August 6, 2021 For the life of me, I can't figure out why Dr. Quack didn't rush to his computer to post the most recent jobs report. The U.S. economy added 943,000 jobs in July. The jobs gain for June, initially reported at 850,000, was revised to 938,000. The unemployment rate fell to 5.4 percent, compared with 5.9 percent in June. Before the report, the consensus of economists polled by Bloomberg forecast a gain of 858,000 jobs, with the unemployment rate dipping to 5.7 percent.
