Both the manufacturing and the services sectors are having a harder time recruiting people today than they did during the credit bubble in the mid-2000s. HR folks are particularly struggling in the services sector, which follows the larger trend of the US services sector outperforming US manufacturing as of late.
As Doyle points out, the net share of services firms that are reporting difficulty is almost triple that of 2005-2007's average, which can be seen in the chart below.
This is a high-quality problem in that it's the result of an improving economy in which the unemployment rate is collapsing and all of the qualified labor available to work is now working.
For quite some time now, small businesses have been pointing out the difficulty in attracting qualified workers.
In the most recent NFIB report, 48% of respondents reported that there are "few or no qualified applications" for the positions they were trying to fill, slightly up from September's 45%. This number has been hovering in the mid-to-upper 40s since May 2014, and has trended higher since 2009.
Additionally, many small businesses have increasingly singled out "labor quality" as a bigger concern than "sales." This shift toward labor quality becoming the most important problem for more employers suggests that economic concerns are shifting from weak demand to tight supply.
Here's a basic question I'll throw out to the "economists" on the bored. When the labor market tightens,, what do you think happens to wages?
Now a bonus question. Race FS has stated multiple times now that Hillary will be running under a deep recession like McCain did. That means in December the recession will start and by next fall the economy will be losing 500k to 800k jobs a month. Is there a more fucktarded statement that that?

so... workers who used to make $30-40-50/hour aren't jumping at $16?... they're opting for free shit instead?
shocking.
(I only read your headline) -
No one who made $30-$50 an hour is taking free shit.
HTH -
Why would you think everyone is on welfare? Are you stupid?
Rhetorical question -
You are right, I meant to say "I thought every Democrat was on welfare."RaceBannon said:Why would you think everyone is on welfare? Are you stupid?

We have an increasing trend of more people wanting to take free money than to work for it. What's new?

How does that relate to this article? How many people do you know would rather collect $200 a month in food stamps and live in a shithole for $400 a month (instead of $600)... Than make money working?greenblood said:We have an increasing trend of more people wanting to take free money than to work for it. What's new?

How does claiming everyone wants to be on welfare add to anything other than your reputation as a dumbass?2001400ex said:
