I just got an email from a local non-profit saying they are closed until January 15th due to staffing shortages. And, everywhere I look... same thing... "now hiring" .
Some people are home because they are quarantined, but, that many? No way.
Perhaps the workforce has shrunk because some fear working and being exposed to covid?
Or because they are making more money via unemployment?
Or because they had to quit or get the jab, and they chose to quit?
Other reasons? What is going on? The lack of employees everywhere is very concerning... it's just resulting in more division. I wish I had a solution.
This is exactly what is happening in Michigan. Spouse sees it every day in our industry. Neighbors brag about it, too.
Its a bummer. The moral hazard created here is just beyond what most can imagine.
Much love to a fellow of the mitten. Godbless.
