. Many people are receiving more in unemployment benefits than they would earn in the available jobs. Some who are out of work don’t have the skills needed for jobs that are available or are unwilling to switch to a new career., according to the Labor Department, and economists project that the April jobs report, due out Friday, will show employers added 1 million more.
. Some businesses are forgoing work, such as not bidding on a project, delivering parts more slowly or keeping a section of the restaurant closed. That reduces the pace of the economy’s expansion. Other companies are raising wages to attract employees, which could inflate prices for customers or reduce profit margins for owners.
We all know the answer to that,it's called no pay no work. SIMPLE!!!!
Abundance of non attracting fast food openings yea cut unemployment aid so people with actual trades can flip burgers for the remainder of their lives gtfoh
Why? Duh
No one wants to work when you can make more by staying home and getting unemployment.
Because people are finally starting to realize that they are worth more than minimum wage .
So the decades of systemic racism reaching a boiling point has nothing to do with it?
Proper payment and conditions will suitable workers.
CAUSE THEY WANT SLAVES NOT EMPLOYEES
The best 6 Health Insurance for unemployed of 2021 with no waiting period
You know damn well those aren’t the only reasons. If people het more money in unemployment benefits than they do at work, employers aren’t paying enough.
Actually paying a living wage is. Idiots
Because they're looking for servants
At least 26 Palestinian civilians, including children, were the latest target of the Israeli war machinery in Gaza. The photos document some of the horrors of the Al-Remal neighborhood massacre in Gaza carried out last night by Israeli warplanes.
Because they don't pay enough, perhaps?

Well I am looking for work and I can’t find anything suitable. Yes, I can get a job flipping burgers but I’d rather shoot myself.
I call total bullshit on the first two - it’s the third excuse that’s the culprit!
Maybe also ridiculous low salaries? 🧐
AYA fintech network platform provides proprietary alpha stock return estimates and personal finance tools for U.S. stock market investors.
Reliable and safe day care would help.
Because unemployed workers are over 40 and companies are hiring young people. I have applied to many places who can't find workers.
No problem, millions of criminal aliens are crossing the border now to take those jobs.
jimcramer Heres a few job ideas for you
Yesssss America, wage slaves sticking it to the man and raising up together against these greedy fucks, now that's something I can get behind.
Me to people who work at McDonald's past their teen / college years: 'You know what a f***** loser you are?!'
Why work when the Government gives you free money? DemocratsTheEnemyWithin BidenLied
7.50/ hour & you'll have to be available 90 hours a week or be fired, unpredictable scheduling so no 2nd job, but will only be given 25 hours a week. NOoNe wAntS tO wOrK!
Goddamn. No matter how many times you explain to conservatards that they could find workers if they simply paid more money, the WSJ continues to pretend this is some kind of huge mystery that no one can explain.
Pay more
Try paying a living wage.
Best way for companies to automate everything. It’s not difficult to implement robotics solution with artificial intelligence .
Why to work when govt is willing to give free money ?
Evidence that the foundation of capitalism is exploitation. Keep workers poor so they work for low wages...if workers have a choice to run away from exploitation, this is what happens
a living wage would be a good start you assholes
“If only we could find workers” This is crazy, but it just might work; pay them.
Only 38 percent of Americans are vaccinated. Many of those vaccinated in the last 2 weeks. Give people a second to catch up and get immune. Jeez.
Maybe if companies paid a little more…? 🤷🏼♀️
Maybe if they paid more than slave wages. Isn't the market supposed to self-correct or is that all bullshit?
If only they would pay a decent living wage. This is the wages revolution we need in in this country.
Spit wages, and high risk...think not
Auto MATiON. Dems are getting their welfare state
As soon as the crypto bull run finishes.. Those jobs will be filled! 😆
The story here should be about how Free Market is learning that Americans are no longer interested in low wage dead end 'jobs'. They want careers with a future & wages that allow family building & retirement by 65, + all the benefits & pensions the Boomers got to enjoy.
hhhurka
The government pays them higher unemployment
Maybe offer wage increases instead of one time bonuses? Wage increases bump your lifetime earning potential.
People don‘t like to work - looking Netflix is more 😀
Because there’s still a pandemic going on?
I am fully vaccinated, but I am still in no hurry to return to social settings like restaurants, movies or concerts. I am a performer and I am not accepting bookings until Fall. I can understand some people’s reluctance to return to low paying jobs if they don’t have to.
Unemployment pays better.
Then give them a living wage. 😷
It is pretty shocking. Considering the vaccine just became widely available last week. And it takes a month to become fully vaccinated.
Stimulus checks
Do the math!
joebiden
Gosh. Why won’t anyone take this shit job for shit wages?
Every interview I’ve been to so far has been work now for 40% less than what I was making before the closures and we get you later and oh by the way we can’t afford to fully staff so you will need to do the job of two+ people. FYI unemployment is only paying 1/3 my normal salary
Pay!!!!
You want loyal workers? First: All businesses should follow the CDC Guidelines to protect their workers Second: Pay employees a Living Wage so they do not have to work 2 or 3 jobs Third: Provide Health Benefits Fourth: Invest in 401K’s and profit sharing Fifth: Child care help
'Aren't finding workers' lmao
Much like the Black Death loosened the grip of feudalism, COVID-19 may have created another scoietal realignment. Turns out ignoring the reality of the virus for short-term gain was far more detrimental and costly than a temporary shutdown and containment ever could be. Hilarious
I don't need to work cuz these stimmies keep coming in. Thanks Kamala!
Please all the moralists announce what a “living wage” is? I’m tired of hearing about it. I can live on $12k per year. What a subjective statement
Cuz people are tired of working their asses off only to be left with nothing to show for it
Perhaps their slave type work is not worth the min wages without benefits
I worked all through the pandemic and have been looking for another job that pays more since things opened up. Lots of applications sent, no replies. Can't be too desperate for people unless you want to earn less.
Extended unemployment benefits are the reason why people are not going back
Just rid the extended unemployment, face mask and eviction moratorium and people will rush back to work
The government is putting business out of business.
Wage slave work is good for employers not for job seekers.
Why work when you can get free money from Biden?
IF A COMPANY IS NOT HIRING ...IS IT A LAW THAT THEY MUST HANG AN 'HIRING' SIGN? I HAVE SEEN QUALIFIED PEOPLE WHO ARE SEEKING EMPLOYMENT...GET TURNED DOWN!!!
Maybe if these companies offered competitive wage and benefits that wouldn't be a problem.
If people don’t want to work that is their choice. But the rest of us who do should not be paying taxes so the whiners can sit home contributing zero to society. You don’t work, you don’t get my money.
Lack of training, low paying wages in comparison to living and college tuition repayments for an education that promised us a job, outrageous requirements of qualifications….
Pay more
“Recent pay trends aren’t much different than before the pandemic”
Laziness.
ANY STIMULUS PACKAGE SHOULD HELP IN SHORT PERIOD, TO ENCOURAGE PEOPLE TO EARN IN LONGER PERIOD. THINK OF GRANTING STIMULUS PACKAGE BENEFITS AS LOANS REPAYABLE FOR SOME PERIOD ONLY BUT NOT AS NON REFUNDABLE. ANY ECONOMY FLOURISH WITH HUMAN,FINANCIAL,NATURAL RESOURCES CONTRIBUTION.
Perhaps they can start paying living wages! Enough with taxpayers subsidies to the rich such a Walton , and others
Gonna take a wild guess and say it has something to do with Pandemic Emergency Unemployment Compensation
*at the wage they want to pay.
Wow. They value their lives more than slave wages. Shocking.
Maybe if the CEOs bought fewer yachts and vacation homes, they could afford to pay a living wage. And then they wouldn't have such a hard time finding workers.
Offer better wages 🗣
End the gravy train. Get em back to work
Well, have they tried offering better compensations?
The headline should say - “Companies struggling to find employees willing to work for low wages”
Free blue... free blue... all auction pale... free blue
As an advocate of free markets, why isn’t the asking why these companies aren’t offering higher wages to attract labor?
Pay enough so people can afford rent and you can get workers
People no longer required to accept jobs to get unemployment is the problem.
Gee, I wonder if it has anything to do with the low wages and piss poor benefits?
Treat employees better.Pat them better. Give them decent benefits.
Market demand. Current pays scales don’t pay the rent or health insurance.
That sign looks fake. I can tell by the pixels.
People getting paid by the government to sit on their ass!
Maybe high school kids will get jobs this summer.
i can tell them why, because working man is UNDERPAYED. Raise the wage. Pathethic 500 sign on bonus. Ppl can make that a day with investing.
whats the wage for a new employe on mcdonalds?
stimulus checks
They are all trying to get across the border!!
I'm surprised McDonald's isn't jumping at the chance to add another kiosk
They lie & discriminate.
still pushing this lie, huh?
You forgot to mention lousy pay. McDonald's paid their CEO $9,200/hr 8 YEARS AGO. Wanna bet it's even more now? Investors, Billions. While claiming they can only 'afford' to pay the workers actually doing the work earning all that money $7.25/hr.
Good! It’s about F’ing time. I am 35 and have been in the same pay range for 15 years! Do you think prices and cost of living have stayed the same in the last 15 years? No.... And what happens when my kid wants to go to BU for college and they charge 75K per year? Never get ahead
Because people are sitting on their asses getting a check from the government Captain Obvious!
None of the above. Or the much bandied about *living wage*. White and Black American kids simply don't like manual labor. Telecommuting companies and Uber/Favor will be just fine. But getting Americans that aren't ex cons to do any physical work? Good luck.
Incentive drives behavior
But how bad are those immigrants who take American jobs 🤣🤣🤣 Very American to blame everyone but yourself for your problems
Wish I am there too 😛😛
Lol that picture
Have they tried paying more? Or na?
Low starting wages as well. Pay people a decent wage and they will get a job.
Maybe we should stop paying people to sit on their ass.
Workers can scrape money up with gigs or whatever instead of working for poor wages.
A $500 Sign-On bonus isn't better than a living wage, its that simple.
Stop with the lie about extended unemployment benefits. That is a Republican talking point that is just not true.
People don't want to work a shitty job for shitty wages. Go figure.
free money, lazy cows plus work is becoming unpleasant experience for many.
You forgot to mention the employers are still refusing to pay a living wage. If extended unemployment benefits are a barrier to workers entering the workplace, the issue is that the employers aren't paying enough.
Pay more.
Maybe pay them more?
