    "Some guy started a solar company to cash in on government contracts and is hurriedly hiring cheap electricians so he can start churning out shitty lowest-bidder work. The interviewees realized this and decided to not waste their time and sully their professional reputation while 2 had no other choice but to get involved in this scam."

      A capital strike disguised as a labour shortage.

      Thinking the same thing. I find it suspicious that /antiwork rocketed to the top of reddit and became the spokes-darling of the masses.

      The only people I hear taking about how there’s so many jobs are the labor aristocrats who already had high-paying jobs.

      Montana Busch is the name of Duncan Idaho's archenemy from Dune fanfiction. I can't believe some of the names Americans give their kids.
