    New unemployment numbers came out yesterday and the US is down to a quarter million(roughly .001% of the labor force) more on unemployment now than before the pandemic started. That puts a pretty big hole in the argument that unemployment benefits are the root cause of the labor shortage.

    Agree. He also really good at explaining football concepts in terms the average fan can grasp.

    Spring 2020 WVA hit 16% unemployment. I seriously doubt WVA's state unemployment benefit is anything more than a pittance.
  4. ShaggyBevo RIP
    Looked it up, WVA unemployment rate is 5.9 to Texas' 6.9.
  5. ShaggyBevo RIP
    Anybody from WVA that is semi competent and wants work is already in the three Cs of OH or Pittsburgh. It is a lot like LA folks in Texas post Katrina.

    I should have said they start at $25/hr these days. I'm paying $30/hr.
  7. ShaggyBevo RIP
    Housekeepers are charging $25/hr these days.

    Do you have any idea how much revenue you're asking the Port As and Galvestons to give up? F&B taxes are the lifeblood of funding those places. Plus restaurants with fewer than 25 employees are few and far between as they try to keep everyone to under 30-35 hours a week to not trigger overtime and other costs.

    You do know that the youngest millennials are in their late 20s and the oldest ones are in their early 40s?

    I believe Aaron Franklin puts hickory as second choice to post oak. I believe when he's had to use it he soaks in water for an hour a day before cooking on it.

    I'd also posit that the largest generation to date, millennials, have largely moved beyond service industry jobs at this point and thus have moved from the service labor supply column to the service labor demand column.

    One of the major media outlets, which one I can't remember(Bloomberg?), did a story on this last week and UE was pretty low on reasons. IIRC #1 was Amazon, Target, and Walmart starting pay @ $15/hr, with benefits, taking away the gamble of are you going to have a good week tip wise. Followed closely by COVID fear driving food service employees to pick food delivery/shopping for others work over face to maskless face contact all day. It wasn't necessarily fear for themselves but as low wage earners they are far more likely to be in a multi-generational living situation. Food service workers didn't/don't want to risk it when the majority of those still dining out are/were anti mask and now compounded by the anti vax crowd. Rounding out the top three was childcare/homeschooling issues during COVID.

    When did LA and Miami become hard to get too? However they are good choices for a free trip.

    Bye Bob.

    Speculations/rumors are being deleted out of respect for the Ehlinger family.

    I hope the team makes wearing #48 earned just like #60.
  18. ShaggyBevo RIP
    Damn.

    I'd also suggest you get completely up to speed on all their financial affairs if dad is still able to contribute to the conversion. My mother passed very unexpectedly and the amount of head scratching decisions, made between 75-85 years old, that I'm discovering as executor is tough to look at and is compounded by guilt of how didn't I notice when it was happening.

    Guy in front of him was drafted in the 2nd round.
  21. ShaggyBevo RIP
    ^^^ Correct Answer. 82" 4K OLED works too. It would be about half of what you paid a decade ago for that Mitsu.
  22. ShaggyBevo RIP
    Or dad is having him put his name in the portal for a second payday/retention bonus.

    Collin county would like a word with your manager. https://www.texastribune.org/2021/03/22/capitol-siege-jan-6-north-texas-arrested/

    And the importance of a coach that can continue development.

    Is spring game/practice allowed after the semester ends? Many school finish spring semester last week of April.
