[QUOTE="LibertyTurns, post: 814947, member: 789"] There’s certainly a lot of different factors at play and there’s no single silver bullet. If you company has a hammer lock on manpower you’re doing something right because most companies are struggling. It’s not just finding skilled mechanics and machine operators, I know people looking for Accountants and Managers too. It’s brutal out there now. On the other hand, maybe it’s about time the little guy at the bottom got a bigger slice of the pie? It was happening the 2018 & 2019 up until the pandemic hit and happening in a greater extent in the demographics traditionally left behind. All I know is I’m trying to get out ahead of this and raising my labor rates 15% now in 2 years is just about keeping me even. It’s not like I was offering below average pay with bad benefits, we’re sitting at 65th percentile and have pretty generous benefits packages to boot. It’s personally tough for me because I volunteer a fair amount at the local youth center trying to raise kids and families out of the seemingly endless cycle they’re in and I’d think now more than ever they’d be motivated to change their life with business conditions as they are. It’s sad so few cannot seem to find their way. [/QUOTE]
