Where Did All the Workers Go?

My wife made a service appointment for her Hyundai in August through the dealership web page.  She got there today and this was news to them.  She was able to make an appointment for tomorrow.   But thst is only the oil change.   Warranty work is months out; there are no mechanics.

Is everyone under 30 in Mom's basement playing video games or trying to be an influencer?

  1. Yes.

    Everybody has been told that work is for suckers and that the government will give you free money, or that mommy will always take care of you.

    They've also been told that they can be artists, writers, of internet personalities and that manual labor is unnecessary and unrewarded.

    In the future, auto mechanics and plumbers will be paid as well as doctors are today.

  2. Dealers charge in excess of $100/hr for service. Mechanics make far less than that, and are responsible for purchasing their own tools
