[QUOTE="TedKennedy, post: 3566469, member: 25419"] This is just an added escalation to a problem that already existed. I've been hiring people for many years - the last few I've seen candidates just pass on manufacturing jobs because A. jobs are "temp to hire"- wages are not competitive, B. there is an expectation for new hires to work ridiculous hours without any real hope of transitioning to something better. Companies have adopted the "labor as a commodity" thought, and have little or no engagement with employees as far as development, respect, loyalty, longterm plans....why the hell would a young person stay hooked up at a job that views them as disposable? I know wait staff at some old Tulsa restaurants that have retired from service. Worked waiting on customers for 40 years - think about that. They were treated by their employers as valuable members of a team that ensured a successful business. Maybe it's not just potential employees that need to change? [/QUOTE]
