Speaking of those "tons of jobs out there", seems there is a glitch of sorts.
I'll do some liberal excerpt since it's my understanding one has to be a subscriber to see most of what is on The Epoch Times webpage. This is from an editorial .....
The Dire Shortage of Actual American Workers
Jeffrey A. Tucker
6/25/2025|Updated: 6/30/2025....
Commentary
I have predicted many times that the hope of restoring U.S. manufacturing would ultimately falter on unforeseen grounds. Namely, there simply aren’t enough working-age people in the United States who know how to do stuff, care enough to do it, have the work ethic or mental discipline to make it through one full day’s work, or otherwise feel the inspiration to make themselves useful.
Does that sound crazy? Well, the facts are these. There are 400,000 open factory and warehouse jobs today, and precious few people out there with the requisite training or ambition to take them. The jobs pay well. They are good jobs. But U.S. workers have different expectations; namely, they want to make the big bucks while doing nothing.
They are mostly not prepared to enter a world of serious manufacturing. They have prepared for everything but that, having lived with the expectation that their college degrees will magically confer status on them sufficient to generate a big income stream forever. Now they are waking up to a new reality. They need skills they do not have and they lack the ambition to acquire them.
Does that sound harsh? The truth needs to be told. There are too many layabouts in the workforce who wave fake credentials for which they paid the big bucks—or borrowed the big bucks—but which trained them for nothing at all. What they are mostly trained to do is fake out their professors, scroll social media, vamp and preen for cameras, talk the talk, use substances, and careen from one day to the next living off family or government, without a lick of skill, inspiration, or drive.
Anyone who runs a business knows the score. There simply are not enough skilled workers out there. The fakes outnumber the real 20 to one. I said that number to a person experienced in the financial industry and he corrected me: 100 to one. Maybe that’s correct.
I’ve done job interviews for years for nonprofit and for-profit companies. It’s the most frustrating job there is. Finding people who can speak plain English without nasally vocal fries, rising intonation, or street talk peppered with fashionable gibberish is enough of a challenge. It gets worse when you take apart what they are saying. They demand more time off, vacation days, health benefits, and more, long before they know anything about the job.
Americans have been trained to believe that a job is not a task but a paycheck, not an applied skill at achieving something but a racket, not a discipline to produce but a welfare state to plug the holes in the streams of income in and out. These people are poor by any standard, often buying groceries on instant credit, sitting on maxed-out credit cards, borrowing from friends and family, scamming the unemployment office, and so on, but have no burning desire to upgrade to live a real life.

when i'm at my girl's place we'll use uber eats or door dash... I have the Uber account she has both
While I live in the sticks where she lives where there's a ton of restaurants
When I do Uber I tip 10% on the app and then when I get to the door to give them my pin number.i tip another 10 or 20 bucks in cash.They love that shit
Depends on how big the tab is. And how far I make the ****** drive
I feel sorry for your wife.

I have no idea what yu are talking about.
She should.
Because?
Yeah, right.
She's a woman (I assume) and she's just storing up her repetoire of gripes for the day she'll walk out on you. That's when she'll tell you that you are "typical misogynist" and that she hates cooking. Look, I'm not accusing you of anything. I'm on your side. But one day she's going to drop a ton of bricks on your head and you won't understand anything as she storms out the door. Where she goes I don't want to tell you.Generally speaking there are two types of women:
1). She claims she likes cooking until the day she divorces you then she'll tell you how much she hates cooking.
2). She likes cooking but claims that she doesn't in order to give you a guilty conscience.
Best regards,
Experience
