It is a mess. Many stores closing early as well.
Yes they are, stimulus checks were not enough for majority to not need to work.........evidently more adults are living off their parents than I was aware of!

I am not understanding why our younger generation who are very capable of working believe they should not have to work to support themselves. Of course...not all feel that way, but far too many.
Exactly and it's not just the young, same goes for Millennials........
Come September when student loan repayment kicks back in maybe then they will go to work
I blame the Parents

Our daughter has been paying on her student loans all along. Her debt. We expect her to pay it. With every single life choice comes consequences. Debt is one of them.
She was raised to be responsible.....good job

Thank you. As an adult, she made the decision to attend a overpriced out of state College. Now, as an adult she will have to pay off HER debt.

Labor Shortage Caused by Government
America has a record 8.1 million job openings.
The media call it a “labor shortage.”
But it’s not a labor shortage; it’s an incentive shortage.
“No one wants to work,” says a sign on a restaurant drive-thru speaker in Albuquerque, New Mexico. “Please be patient with the staff that did show up.”
I never wanted to work. I got a job because I had to support myself. That was good for me. It forced me out of my comfort zone. It made me a better person.
Had government offered me almost equal money not to work, I never would have applied.
Today, government takes away that incentive.
The American Rescue Plan, passed in March, increased unemployment payments by hundreds of dollars and extended them for up to 73 weeks. Given the cost of commuting, etc., many people find they are better off financially not working.
Denmark once offered workers five years of unemployment. Then they noticed that workers found work after exactly five years. So, Denmark cut the benefit to four years. Then most workers found jobs after four years. Now Denmark, wisely, has cut benefits in half.
Incentives matter.
America’s unemployment handouts began during the Great Depression when desperate people really needed help. Still, you could collect for only 16 weeks.
Barack Obama extended unemployment benefits to up to 99 weeks.
“There are no jobs!” people I interviewed waiting in line for benefits in New York City once told me.
But that wasn’t true. There were lots of entry-level jobs within walking distance.
My staff visited 79 nearby stores. Forty said they wanted to hire. Twenty-four said they’d hire people with no experience.
People in the unemployment line also said that the government should do more to train them for jobs. But New York already offered “job training” centers, so I sent an intern out to see what they did. The first offered to help her get welfare. A second told her to apply for unemployment. Neither place suggested looking for a job.
When she insisted that she wanted work, not handouts, they directed her to yet another building. There she was told she could not receive help because she didn’t have a college degree.
Finally, a fourth office offered her an interview at the sandwich chain Pret a Manger. The boss there told her she’d wasted her time going to the government Jobs Center because she could have gotten that same interview using Craigslist.
Some politicians understand that handouts encourage dependence. Sixteen states are now ending extra unemployment benefits early. Montana and Arizona replaced extra unemployment benefits with a bonus for people who find work.
Even President Joe Biden has noticed the unintended consequences of his party’s benefits. “If you’re … offered a suitable job, you can’t refuse that job and just keep getting unemployment,” he said.
Seems more than reasonable. Yet a New York Times headline says, “Some say it presents an undue hardship.”
The reporter interviewed a “Mx. San Martin, 27, who uses the pronouns they and them.”
Mx. Martin wants to work with pets. They complained that “there simply weren’t enough jobs that I would actually want.” Restaurant work “is not in my field of interest.”
Too bad.
Bad for all of us when people think they’re entitled to our tax money if bureaucrats don’t get them the exact job they want.

As someone once said "If you pay people to stay home, they will".

"Create Your Own Perfect Data Entry!" Many companies turn to outsourcing in order to free up valuable office space or save money on costly employee-management costs. While telecommuting and remote working certainly have its benefits, many companies also realize that it can have its drawbacks https://belkins.io/sales-tools/top-call-center-companies/sitel. Some companies may not feel comfortable training employees on a new routine, while others may not be able to keep abreast of the latest technological trends. By utilizing the expertise and proven leadership provided by qualified telecommuting data entry services, companies can eliminate these issues while maintaining their current work processes.
