ReyOso Intervention Needed

There's a lot of inflation right now, and jobs are bidding up their wages. In most of these cases, it seems like either the pay is too low, the job is terrible, or both.

She in HS so no, she works weekends

germ1

9/15/21 2:00pm

That’s misleading. She does not make $45 an hour. She probably makes around $13 an hour and then she averages her tips.

CB: If you don't want a crap job, upgrade your skills, work on the gig economy

ReyOso

9/15/21 1:40pm

How much of this is people paid to stay home

Carnac

9/15/21 1:41pm

This has nothing to do with upgraded skills

palangi

What’s your point? That first statement is generally true.

These are GOOD developments. Helps automate the jobs nobody wants.

ReyOso

I would agree if what we are seeing was a market

BlackHawkCoug

Higher wages for working class will be undercut by inflation

Exactly. It disproportionately hurts the poor

Big Daddy D

9/15/21 2:00pm

Higher wages hurt the poor?

ReyOso

9/15/21 2:41pm

They don't hurtthem, but if they are largely cancelled out by inflation

Carnac

9/15/21 2:43pm

Most people on CB seem incredulous that people aren't jumping at these jobs.

ReyOso

9/15/21 2:57pm

The complaint is that government intervention is giving people more incentive

Terrible work conditions?

Bro. The rising cost of the cheapest food hurts the poor by far the most.
