"There's something in us, it's the fault in our stars, you know, where we begin to resent the very thing we rely upon," said Rowe.
"My career has been spent mostly trying to find the workers who are out of sight and therefore out of mind, just tapping the country on the shoulder and saying, 'hey! What about him? What about her? Check these guys out,'" he added.
Labor shortages across the country have hamstrung companies trying to meet the increased demand as the pandemic recedes and Americans go back to living life. Average wages have risen as a response, but skyrocketing inflation is also taking a toll.
"Look this whole problem, this disconnect, this skills gap, 11 million open jobs, this isn't a mystery. This is a reflection of what we value," Rowe continued.
"And our country has become disconnected from the kinds of jobs that you're talking about right now. We're not properly gobsmacked when we turn on the switch and the lights turn on, or when we flush the toilet and it all goes away," he said. theblaze.com/news/mike-rowe-worker-shortage
Because it's meaningless. Look at the old crippled retards who worked their entire life.

>need advanced higher education for an entry level job >employers treat you like shit >prices are skyrocketing for basic necessities >rent is astronomical, can't even think about owning a home What's the point
Hudson Rodriguez
Any code monkey can get a job with much higher pays while being at their moms basement, so who wants to bother standing/moving all day outside?
Noah Nelson
>Why are zoomers afraid of hard work? I don't think they are. More that the value of work has been undermined in the extreme in the past 30 years: just look at how H1B is a nod-and-wink fraud-machine designed to suppress wages for skilled labor... and how illegals do the same for "unskilled" labor.
Camden Morris
I hate this cunt. I'll work any job if I can support a wife who will not work, 5+ children, a house, and a comfortable life for my kids.
Meanwhile these 11 million jobs are fucking target and walmart part time jobs that pay 9 dollars an hour where rent is 1800 a month for a fucking 1 bedroom 1 bathroom.
Until this boomer cunt starts advocating for the removal of women and immigrants from the workforce, he needs to keep his mouth shut about work.
I (23) will not destroy my body for useless jew paper that will hyperinflate and be completely worthless by 2030.

Why does /pol hate people who suggest they do real work or clean their rooms?
Logan Parker
Well get to work then Mikey. Nobody's stopping you from cleaning toilets for $7.25 an hour, faggot.
Jayden Gutierrez
I'm starting a landscaping job for 16 an hour tomorrow. I just plan on working to save money and buy guns, ammo, etc in preparation
Isaiah Nelson
Sounds like shit pay for a hard job
Charles Jenkins
I don't mind working. I just mind being hot in the process.
Brayden Wilson
Zoomers have too much negro blood to have any work ethic or motivation to succeed.
Christian Martinez
But Americans do look down on hard work and think people keep the lights on are worthless despite their own reliance on them. Americans have always lacked this sort of wisdom and insight. It is sad

Muh 11 million
Blake Allen
Companies decided to have the vast majority of their employees be niggers and white women, maybe a token white male. Noone is entitled to a successful business. They get what they fucking deserve.
James Wood
Lost my mechanic job after getting shitcanned for not getting the vax, boomers don't want to hire people and train them. Starting an IT job next week and I hate office jobs.
Blake Bennett
I'm not afraid of hard work, i just want to be paid properly. I just repaired tons of shit in my house to sell it myself. Since the companies I'm hiring to do the few things i don't want to want exorbitant pay, why shouldn't i also demand it?
Joshua Russell

Could mike Rowe row a row boat if mike Rowe owned a row boat?

Not always, good god no. Once a very rural nation. Literally everything was done on your own and everyone had animals
Landon Stewart
That was easy even for me
Charles Ross
You must be talking from experience.
Kevin Richardson
It's not the zoomers. It's boomers retiring and no one is left to fill the shoes
Daniel Scott
didn't this nigga go to college for drama and acting
Jaxon Roberts
>Implying it is different anywhere else
Jose Parker
Zoomers just need to work 5 years without pay to get that 5 years of experience for an entry level job. It's just that easy.
Ian Roberts
We'll see. I'm outside all day anyways, may as well be payed for it. I did apply for an online math tutoring gig, 25 dollars an hour. That'd be nice
Michael Jenkins
They are not. They have been subverted not to. The elites want illegals to do those jobs.

>most of the people with money didn't work hard for it >psychically hard work is really ever rewarded The dream is dead because of greed and society is rotten form the inside out. Hard work is no longer rewarded. The workplace has been ruined by women and PoC demanding and getting special treatment.
Jaxson Torres
Should have thought about that ahead of time. Dumb fucking boomers
