20 jobs most at risk next year because of the coronavirus pandemic: Glassdoor
Yahoo Finance ^ | 11/23/2020 | Reggie Wade

The COVID-19 pandemic has wreaked havoc on the U.S. labor market, and according to new data from job and review site Glassdoor, the damage done within some industries might be irreversible. Glassdoor Chief Economist Andrew Chamberlain breaks down pandemic-affected jobs into three categories: jobs that won’t return until the coronavirus is under control, jobs that may take years to get back to pre-pandemic levels, and jobs that may never return.

Jobs that likely will not return until COVID-19 is under control include anything in the personal services, including beauty consultants and stylists as well as discretionary health care jobs like audiologists, who help with hearing aids, optometrists, and physical therapists. Event coordinators are also a part of this category. Chamberlain says that these jobs might eventually return in 2021 as long as a vaccine is available.

Jobs that might take years to come back come to full employment include those in the foodservice and education industries. “The restaurant industry is in kind of a crisis right now. The restaurants will be back after COVID; it’s just going to take years to get back to where we were in February,” he said.

Chamberlain says that positions in U.S. colleges will likely fall by the wayside and take years to return due to dwindling college enrollment numbers.

“There is a financial tsunami coming for higher education, but also local public education … Universities are just so big and expensive and have so much real estate and huge overhead that there’s a financial crisis that’s coming for them,” he said.

“It’s probably going to take two or three years to unfold completely. So I’m really worried about that. ”

Nope.

Missouri drivers license test.

Replicants don’t know what a school zone is.

Fewer HR Generalists would be a service to humanity.

DannyTN :" Well if the Beauty Consultants aren’t working, then there is no need to go to the Optician. "

Then there will be a rise in the number of people who provide : "beer goggles",
and the resulting pregnancies.

I believe it. Can’t imagine service industry is doing so well overall. Hotels, gyms, restaurants, bars, airlines, cruises, tourism, landlords, etc...

Any Nexus 6 models left?

Have you seen things people wouldn’t believe? Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. C beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to die...

People miss so much of the message in that scene.

Roy dies and the dove flies away.

Roy wanted to live forever.

His maker told him why this wasn’t a good idea.

He became furious at his maker.

Sounds a lot like humanity.

Good for him! Very smart!

I think ANY of us that ran businesses during, ‘The 0bama Reign of Error’ learned then to think on our feet and be nimble, changing things up as far as our business went, staffing, benefits, etc.

If nothing else, American Patriots are NOT quitters!

If Slow Joe is in the driver’s seat, expect a REALLY crappy economy in general, no economic recovery from Covid, more lock downs, more stupidity and a return to The Carter Years.

We’ll also be told that Up is Down, In is Out, Poverty is Wealth, Unemployment gives us all opportunity to explore our dreams, and all the other BS they spouted for eight long, tortuous, exhausting years!

President Trump will turn it all around in a heartbeat. :)

“Good for him! Very smart!”

I do not know him nor have I ate from the food truck but others have told me he is tickled to death how it has been working out and he has a lot less stress.

He had a couple of signature meals at his restauarant and that is what he offers on his food truck.

I see the truck everywhere.

They have tens of billions but don’t pay great wages.

The monopolies need to be busted up.
