It’s one of the few honest ones where you don’t buy leads or pay ‘expenses’ per month or do a ‘project 100’ where you are supposed to hand over names/numbers/addresses for the place to have for free. And a lot of people were just sacked from there for not working at all - nice opportunity for someone with a work ethic.
I have tried min-wage job applications, believe me. Dozens of them. I have recieved no response partially because applicants are hitting the mid-high HUNDREDS for each position. You’re literally down to cheap lottery ticket chances of even an interview let alone an offer.
The hardest part is my parents and relatives keep refusing my offer to come sort through momentos and possessions for anything that has happy memories or could be useful, insisting things will someday, somehow be better and they JUST saw a “now hiring” (which should have the w replaced with a t) at XYZ business. Guess they’ll have to sort through the pile at the curb...
How ironic. We just lost a “destination” restaurant because they couldn’t find workers.
Where are you located? I’m in North Carolina, and not in an area that has recovered to some extent like Raleigh or Charlotte. I’m near Greensboro. But, even here, there are jobs. The manager of the local Pizza Hut, storefront takeout and delivery only, no dining room, told me he had a number of jobs that he hasn’t been able to fill, including assistant night manager. Said all positions were eligible for pretty decent healthcare insurance. What applicants he got failed the drug screening.
