Where’d they go? Living in mom’s basement making Tik Tok videos or playing video games. Sorry to say but this generation does not want to work. Recent studies have shown Gen Z values their time more than financial remuneration. Which, to me, translates into lazy lack of interest in working.
Have a young relative who is a manager with a large national firm and he is ready to change jobs because no one wants to work! Those they can hire are emotionally, psychologically, and physically fragile. It’s like a working daycare.
Where did all the wage increases go?
I’m here - BUT car problems and now the cap on early SSI has my working choices limited. I’m working on the car problems first - at least one.
IF they would remove the cap on early SSI I would work MORE once I got working - more taxes collected for city, state and federal. And more incentive for me.
Hello Republicans - petition to remove the earnings cap on early SSI. You’ll get more workers and better workers, IMMEDIATELY.
Frankly, I’d prefer my old salary and no SSI (because I’d make too much) UNLESS they remove the earnings cap.
That would be a logical conclusion IF the vaccines were effective.
I have 4 dead and no quitters but with two sheltered with failure to launch
Its no fair looking at total deaths pre jab vs post jab. There is no way to massage the data to protect the public from thinking the obvious explination: the jab is more deadly than covid.
No worries mate...plenty of replacement labor coming across the Southern border.
Only problem? You gotta learn Spanish.
who's gonna live till they are 65?
Im not working Christmas, or thanksgiving, the 4th, or presidents day and I want a paid 2 days for juneteenth!!
cant work, the superbowl is this weekend.
I'll worry about retirement when I hit 60.
Right now I want my nights and weekends off to do things, I dont live to work, Ive got my life to live, and I only want 40 hours a week.
Overtime is for suckers and stupid people.
none of these excuses are made up .. except the juneteenth one, Ive not heard that one, but figured someone has told their boss they were taking juneteenth off.
Not long ago employers had endless lines of applicants and they were able to keep wages stagnant for decades. You could be fired for any reason and they’d have 4 more people waiting to apply..
Those days seem to be long over.

Have wages gone up since worker shortage ?
Something weird about the graphs.
Take the 1st one, Monthly Deaths in U.S. - 30-34 Year Olds. It shows 2020 ending around 3700 deaths and gently sloping upward.
Then 2021 picks up around 3900 deaths and is sharply sloping downward.
That sharp change in slope doesn’t make sense. Other graphs in the series have the same behavior.
As the voice of reason… for the sake of rational debate.. this age group had 4 Facebook experiments performed during their teen years. Facebook has detailed these… this coincides with my experience in seeing higher than usual suicide rates at that time. Does this data correct for fentanyl deaths and suicide?
