Not sure where we stand on the labour shortage and the problems that we’re going to have. That said, I may just put my feet up for three weeks and say those famous words: fuck it!
Is a labour shortage, more workers than there are jobs, or more jobs than there are workers?
I honestly don't know anyone that wants to work that cannot find a job.
When I got laid off in '22 I musta said fuck it! Turned into 3 years real quick.

My job had the audacity to catch the one I left six weeks ago. I need the same people who have been allotted to that job, so now I can't meet the lovely schedule that I put out to everyone in Manglement.


Two fucking weeks ago!!! :mad:


The sub needs to put on more people or something, or we need a new sub.

This part "The sub needs to put on more people or something, or we need a new sub." sounds like those entitled in the gubment office I left before I got laid off. Near impossible to replace. Our projects were behind most of the time. Hurry up and wait was more important than the budget we burnt through. Putting off to next year what could be completed now. As for me I miss the hands on tech, but I left for an office job that turns out after 15 years I was over paid for. I resented the waste I witnessed and was forced to participate in and am disappointed I didn't see the "downsize" RIF coming before I made the switch.
 
There are two reasons to be unemployed here; either you don't wanna work, or you're no fucking good.
When I first completed the process of learning how the internet worked I was systems administrator at a small university.
All of the faculty had proven in their industry they were no fucking good and yet still employed. Some with tenure!

These people all work at what we refer to as the "price point." There are better people out there but they charge accordingly, and we cannot get the work if we use them. This LIHTC stuff is a kind of racket, but it's the one that HUD created some any moons ago. They hold the purse strings and call the tune. We like getting paid and we dance to it.
