    Very little of what one needs to know in order to do their jobs well is learned in college [if any]. Most is learned on the job from the older workers.

    What happens when those older workers who know everything about their job aren't in the same building as the new hires? Not good.
    Alex Atwood, the chief executive officer of tech startup GravyWork, told the Journal that his Virginia-based company may have to pay an estimated $500,000 in total costs after a former software engineer worked remotely for long stretches in California and Texas without telling him.

    Even notice how the media has been reluctant to post the thousands that are being laid off on a daily based across the country.

    I remember recessions in the 70s 80s 90s 2000s where you could not find a job because there was none,the cycle has always been there,we had a good 7 year run and now it will be time for the cut backs and mass layoffs.

    People think today will last forever,it never does,the great resignation was about those who were close to retirement decided to just advance the timeframe,the rest that do not want to work or feel it is their right to dictate terms to employers will be getting a sharp dose of reality.

    Most of the machine and metal shops around me that I have used for years,have shut down because the average workers hit retirement age during the pandemic,the only thing that is really going to happen in the future is we will become a service economy that will only support a bloated $15 per hour wage,but with the technology it is easy enough to replace them with robots.

    Remember when they kept talking about the new normal?

    This is our new normal that blows China out of the water,we get to pay high prices for crap verses what we were doing in the past with paying low prices for crap.

    Besides there are plenty flowing across the border,they work hard,are willing to learn and only ask for fairness in return,why waste time messing about with entitled American workforce.
