Lack of workers forces popular Phoenix mom-and pop bakery to close

[fact]

That's why I'm here in Colombia drinking Coconut water now. My landlord increased my rent to 1.55 Million that's still less than 400 a month.


With my insomnia my health was getting fukked up by working around the clock, eating microwaved foods and not getting enough sunlight by being in an office all day.

I'm going to play tennis later then meeting up with friends one who is a commerical sailor and they work 16 hour days at sea. He wonders why I don't want to join him.

Are you full ex pat, or exploring your options?

It might be that. nikkas think it's so easy for little businesses to offer higher wages. The responses in this thread are pathetic, as if a regular woman has the ability to compete with corporations on wages

She could take a chance on one or two folks who’s aren’t super qualified on paper, but have potential, pay them well above min wage, run a two man operation with her there everyday busting her ass. She could cut the business hours and increase prices if her product is good enough based on her talent. If she has the drive she can ride out the storm but the simple fact is most small business’s aren’t that good and you won’t become rich from them.

Sounds like she should pull up her bootstraps

Cheap bytch, come up off those benefits

technically both. I don't get SSDI even though I qualify for it. I could go back to work tommorow but It looks like I'm gonna stay retired.

I feel sorry for small businesses. Thanks to the *sarcasm* wonderful and benevolent government */sarcasm* policies of lockdowns and free money, shyt has gotten worse for all... except for the Zuckerburg's and Bezos' of the world.

I remember it was said by many colivid worriers that:
1. Printing free money not backed by any work, goods and services won't raise inflation on food and utilities.
2. Huge mega corporations and those that own them won't get richer during the wuhan virus lockdown and post it.

I swear, these fools... even a child knows more about economics than them.

How do you know she hasn't already done something like this, but it just didn't work out?

Those workers aren't missing, they're working better paying jobs and she knows this.

Or people are just ultra lazy in the pandemic.

That wasn’t in the article

Minimum wage and half off day olds

 

[bnew]

it's been stated the woman was offering her employees higher than minimum wage and paid year end bonuses. Y'all just talking bullshyt

the labor market decided that wasn't sufficient.

 

[Wiseborn]

Now this I do agree with….. This company did have profit sharing until like 6 years ago and you still can earn some solid bonuses….. but the majority of the raises will be 2 to 3 percent if you or your manager don’t make a case for a proper raise

The mentality of most people is that without profit sharing and no pension that you're getting fukked. It kinda doesn't matter because like I said in big cities rents and property taxes go up year to year, the Go Go Go, Buy Buy Buy mentality is real
