Look at this bullshit.
Business owner Jerry Schill receives a phone call almost daily from condo or commercial businesses looking to hire his North Ridgeville, Ohio, landscaping company, but he has to turn nearly all of them away.
With just 106 employees, he has passed on potential clients with multiple locations and other big projects. The problem: He needs five managers to oversee work crews, quality control and safety.
He has advertised the managerial positions, which pay up to $75,000 a year and include retirement benefits, for Schill Grounds Management Inc. since October. So far, he hasn't found anyone with both managerial and landscaping experience. If these jobs weren't still vacant, "we could easily add 20% more business," he says.
There are two problems with this. The first, this jackass is hiring for
only for managers. What the ****. This is why costs are so ******* high--idiots like him ARE LITERALLY REFUSING TO LET THEIR WORKERS WORK without some moron making $75,000 standing around and pointing fingers at the job site.
The second problem: The whiny ***** in this example is setting his standards way too high, and crying about not being able to find someone to meet his ridiculous demands. He wants an overpaid babysitter but doesn't take skill into account at all, only the magical word
experience. I am forced to wonder how many well-educated applicants he's turned away because they didn't have enough
experience. Employers forget that
"experience" is merely code for
"I avoided getting fired for X number of months," and does not reflect ability in the least.
So, Unkotare, your argument about unfilled jobs hinges upon douchebags like this corporate Schill who REFUSE to hire people who don't have years worth of extremely specific experience. They have dug, and continue to dig, their own grave.
In the latest WSJ/Vistage survey, 35% of 270 services businesses said they couldn't identify qualified candidates, versus 12% of the 135 manufacturing firms, and 8% of 85 wholesale trade businesses.
There's that reference again, "qualified candidates," because non-existent-omniscient-being
forbid these capitalist pigs actually hire someone with real skills and not just the ability to claim they didn't get fired from their last job for however many months in a row.
All of the above are EXACTLY why we need to abolish markets and establish a global economic system of pure communism. Capitalism clearly isn't working because capitalists literally won't let it. Communists like myself have no problem letting other people succeed.
