I'll tell you what we need. Someone to
HELP OUT!
Not for 1000.00 a day for various chores.
Stack wood or paint trim.
Clean cooler or chop weeds.
Nail fence or sweep porch.
Small wood projects, repairs,
moving stuff assist with car,
sink a post, put up a shade.
They all want to put up brand new projects or
charge 500-1000 per day.
A guy wanted 100 an hour to move some logs.
Another wants 150 to haul 2 items away.
WTF?

We, well some already knew this one! Didn't help the dam media pushing total fear into the populations that now so many are too affraid to go back to work!

Anyone who though this was temporary wasn't thinking at all. Can't close everything down for this long without serious SHTF.

We still have people here in the UK thinking the pubs will just open up again in Aug time. Reality is 60% ish won't survive, same for many small businesses.

Many of the coronavirus pandemic layoffs will become permanent job losses, according to a new study with alarming implications for the future of the economy.

Forty-two percent of workers experiencing recent layoffs will suffer permanent job losses, according to a paper circulated by the National Bureau of Economic Research.

The finding is especially grim news because officials are hoping that most of the workers sent home during the pandemic will return quickly to their old jobs. The vast majority of the massive layoffs in response to the pandemic have been on a temporary basis: In April, 18 million of the 20.6 million people who lost work said that their job losses were "temporary," according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 74064780


Of course they will. Because people will REFUSE to go back and their employers will be forced into replacing them! Once the idiots find out their unemployment will cease because they refused to return to work, they will realize how badly they screwed themselves.

Retail is done. 30-40% retail goods stores won't re-open. The younger generation of today will be like the 80s pre-internet kids. Only they wont tell stories about a time before the internet, it will be stories about remembering small shops everywhere and strip malls. Those will be the new pay phones. Whats worrisome there's no industry to pick up the slack now or in the near future in terms of jobs. We don't have skilled labor in retail. Then the support jobs, the construction of those jobs. The tax revenue. It all is going down the drain.

Our entire service based economy is a sham of lifestyle and debt. Once it stops rotating, well there's no core that holds it together. Inflation is the only long term glue that keeps it stable. There's nothing like that has ever happened in modern times. I hope we get everything back moving.

I hear ya. It's as bad as these college age babysitters who think they can charge 10 to 15 an hour to watch one kid. What? Do you have some kind of degree in childcare?
We used to pay $5 for a whole frigging date night evening! Since when do babysitters make as much or more an hour than the person hiring them??? Babysitting is supposed to be charged by the day, like $25 for the whole work day! You make your money babysitting by watching 4 kids a day and that's how you make your $100 a day. Not by watching 1 kid!

Not surprising considering a majority of the jobs are in the service industry.

Restaurants are done. Only half the employees are necessary.

Manufacturing left a long time ago... to China and Mexico

Skilled labor is one of the few that survive.

What do you do that’s so challenging? I used to babysit back in the day ahd I think most are underpaid for watching children. At least the young ones. They are a lot of work. I’m sick of assholes who make $30-40 an hr in easy jobs making these declarations. No person is going to watch your crotch fruit for $5 fucking dollars. This isn’t 1970. I have teenagers and I would expect them to charge at LEAST $10 an hr to babysit if the opportunity came up. As far as $500 a day for that other stuff. Now THAT is crazy. A hard honest days work for any general laborers should net maybe $200 but not $500. Get real. Maybe $300. I would happily pay someone $300 to work 8 hours for me doing various tasks. Here’s the thing - you’re not entitled to special services including babysitting, it’s not a right - it’s a privelage. There’s a lot of demand for it so you’re just going to have to suck it up.
