11K

Ah well, it be like that sometimes

 

[Dr. Acula]

Honestly a lot of these companies overhired. Facebook doesn't need 80k people which was their headcount before the layoffs.

I'm an electrician, my company is giving referral bonuses right now. It's work out the ass for us.

Healthcare IT is pretty solid over here.

This is the problem with the educational system. There should be an apprenticeship/trade path in high school for skilled workers like plumbers and electricians.

There are, predominately where unions are strong. Massachusetts alone has two carpenter/construction schools that I know of.

Yeah, I work with an older union guy and he said they can't fill those positions fast enough right not. I'm a just a maintenance guy at a school and I negotiated a $20k raise for myself the other day which is going to put me a just a hair under $100k next year. It's looking good for the trades right now

Texas has several. There is the union school(JTAC) and then there is IEC and CEF(this one is all trades not just electrical)for non union.

They just don't advertise them like that, but they are there.

My company gonna have to give me a significant raise to stay. There is a company right now offering me $6/hr more than what I'm making right now to come work for them. I like the company I'm at though so I'd rather stay.

We got a lot of jobs especially once 2023 hits, right now it's chilled out but it's a calm before the storm.

That corporate lifestyle with the sports car is what the American dream promotes..

Trade workers are the offensive/defensive lineman of the workforce

The problem is if the trades become popular again, the wages will go down. Supply and demand.

We are already in a recession, possibly entering into a depression. The mortgage industry got obliterated before the tech industry and some of those companies got rid of the majority of their employees. We're in for some bumpy times ahead
