Worker Shortage? Another Look

I've had a couple of conversations with management-level folks in the last two weeks.  They were complaining that they 'couldn't find people' for open jobs.

But the truth of the matter is that they could not find dope-free people for open jobs.

This is a big chunk of the reason that the workforce is graying; the over-40 crowd is not a bunch of dope-smokers.  The under-30 crowd is.

This is a problem because of liability issues, especially in workplaces with machinery--but not only there; hospitals cannot hire dope-smokers, either.

Hmmmmm.

I took your advice and bought more ammo. I even bought a gun to shoot it with - a Beretta U22 NEOS. But I can't shoot 10 bullets without it jamming. One person at the range said I wasn't holding my arm firmly enough, so the slide didn't always work properly. Another said it was the .22 bullets - that they were not manufactured precisely enough.

What do you say?

What I have to say? Your comment is off-topic.

Off topic? So what? Is this a law of physics? A commandment of God? What a boring, trivial response.

Ten or twenty years ago I sent you or pointed you to a dispute between E. Michael Jones and the wife of the founder of CUF, over Wagner. And you mentioned an article or two you had written for Fidelity on Chant.

I had then your email address and I would have used it for my question, but it is long deleted.

You are probably too 'Old' to remember, though you are right about 'Nasty'.

I sympathize with your 'off topic' response: anyone can see you are overwhelmed by comments and lengthy discussion threads, and my question hijacked one such thread.

Wow. That's really Democrat of you.
