Job openings rise, now 1 million more openings than people looking for work
[link to www.nbcnews.com (secure)]

The survey again showed considerably more openings against available labor, a sign of a tightening market. An earlier BLS report indicated 6.5 million Americans qualified as unemployed in January, the most recent month for which data were available.

Boeing laid off many workers in St Louis area. You don't want to work for that company even if they offer $250k.

There was a report yesterday that essentially stated the exact opposite. I don't believe the NBC/deep state report. NBC started Trump's political career.

Re: Job openings rise, now 1 million more openings than people looking for work
So this data is supposedly due to a survey. Who exactly got the survey to take? Because the survey page doesn't seem to mention that:

Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey
[link to catalog.data.gov (secure)]


If they wanted an excuse to bring in more "legal immigrant" workers, this data surely implies they need more non-Americans coming in.

It's all bs.

yep. I dare any of these guys to actually attempt to get a job even in a top city. They have no clue. And many of those jobs aren't actually open, they're just looking to have a stack of backup "resumes" for their dishwashing position.

They all fake jobs. I tested it and found the jobs are fake jobs put out by recruiters. They have crap jobs no one wants to take. They put out a golden fake job to see who is on the market and spam them with shitty jobs

Some jobs are duplicates to. Recruiters have a nasty habit of posting jobs other recruiters have rights to. They will pitch your resume hopping they bite. If course if they have an exclusive contact with a some place else. They cannot employ you if you switch recruiters. They have rights for your into ducting even if they did not get you the job.

Re: Job openings rise, now 1 million more openings than people looking for work
Next they give companies tax incentives to take 1 normal job and split it into 4 jobs with less work hours and pay. This looks like 4 new jobs on the books.

Then they say we need more migrants.

With all the fake jobs and duplicates and zero hour jobs. There is in reality not enough jobs for locals.

But they import migrants anyway. Fully knowing they are killing locals depriving them of money. Jobs extra.

These are the real terrorist

They spam with everything. I agree, most of the jobs are fake. The ones who hire don't want permanent full time workers. It's mostly customer service jobs and blacks get those so section 8 housing costs are met. Part timers. The rest are hard working hospitality workers who serve the elite baby boomers and are shuffled from place to place until they go crazy, start taking drugs and wind up on a greyhound bus to ever lasting poverty and left leaning indoctrination. Vicious cycle. Imo the future started 5 yrs ago and everything already happened this way.

Anyone see it?

MINIMUM WAGE
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 23531633


Supply and demand. When demand for employees exceeds supply, wages go up as it becomes competition between employers for employees.

I am simply a entry leval landscaper/warehouse employee and starting wages are going up. Seems to be more Black and White Men working outside the last couple years vs all the illegals before that. Blue-eyed crackers and their Black brothers are getting Honest Work Again, and its awesome.

Sure, minimum wage, deadend jobs galore....make a few bucks an hour, then the govt takes half hour damn paycheck so taxpayers keep paying to bomb kids in Yemen. ...then after paying for your car , insurance , and gas to get you to your shit job, you're already broke...now you get why millions are homeless in America? A college education means little these days, either. You'll have to work four jobs just to pay back student loans to the gov't. ...it's all a scam...too bad dumb Americans don't get it....spend your first 65 years working, then retire a few years and croak. ...once again, the govt gets to keep the thousands they took from your paycheck over the last forty years. People should be outraged at this scam, but instead they keep accepting this bullshit.

If they offer 250k, I'd counter at $280 and I'd personally choose which planes to send down to Africa.

I'd give The UN a whole fleet of special planes.

I'd sponsor the DNC AND OHHH SO MUCH MORE.
