It’s an issue in Seattle. They offset higher wages by reducing staffing which levels leads to poorer service. I’m wondering if it’ll create a downward spiral where poorer service leads to less people dining out. That’d lead to a lot of restaurant failures, because they need to be busy to cover rent.

Interesting to see companies are focusing more on skills and less on college degrees. I think skills based makes sense. Things change too quickly. Hiring someone for a specific role is short-sighted. Odds are that role will be very different or not even exist in 5-years. It’s better to hire bright people who are adaptable. That way you can move them around as business needs change.

Sound like me yet I’m jobless?

I want jobs to look for me :cowboy_hat_face:

Get a job with a FAANG company or similar high profile company. Then jobs will look for you.

Not true at all. Have to be 20s or relevant domain knowledge. Some knowledge are worthless.

This is actually really positive, since people usually leave a job for a better one.

Automation will become a necessity due to lack of available workers.

I’d like to know In-and-out’s turnover rate.

“ Workers are quitting their jobs at record rates, thanks to a tight labor market and high confidence that moving on will also mean moving up, particularly in pay.”
