salix sericea (@Ripple13216)Something very weird is happening in the United States. My workplace hires a few new forklift drivers every year. Normally, 20 to 30 candidates show up for 4 or 5 positions.This week? A stunning 160 by 8 am. That's an extravagant number. Too early in the day for the latest TikTok trend, 😉.No notable recent private sector layoffs in the area. "Reasonable" max commute distance of about 20 miles.Right now, it looks like a WTF moment....🧵<a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/employment" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#employment</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/hiring" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#hiring</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/blueCollar" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#blueCollar</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/workers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#workers</a>
