I'm not sure how the narrative got flipped to “nobody wants to work” I've been applying for jobs every day and only gotten a single company that declined my application. The rest never responded. It doesn't matter if I call, email, apply on the website, or even go in person to talk with these people. These companies say they are desperate for workers but they don't want to hire anyone. I don't understand it. I had an interview with a guy at a food truck say “maybe nobody wants to work anymore” but he WASN'T EVEN OPEN during the hours he had posted on Facebook. He also couldn't even tell me a single day he wanted help. I have a good record and can provide references.
What is wrong with this economy? How has the narrative been twisted so far upon itself that the blame is being passed on to honest workers?
Edit: And I will finish by saying this, I'm in Washington DC. I will take my skateboard to the capital every single day and apply for jobs along the way and watch the politicians sit with their thumbs up their asses while I skate on their pavement. I see all the housing that is “now leasing” all the companies that are “now hiring” and my medical bills as they go to collections because this economy is absolutely trashed by the elite.
