Not sure where you have been but a tight labor market for the past year or so has lead to the largest wage increases in decades, and the bourgeoise don’t like that one bit and are actively attempting to cause a recession to stop the overheated labor market
McDonalds workers in my area are making over $20/hour. That’s not normal for capitalism.
I left nursing before covid making 27/hr, I've come back to nursing making 35/hr, my credentials have not changed in any significant manner and it's not like a year experience gets you an 8 dollar hourly raise. If I went into travel nursing, I could make like 50+/hr. The push towards travel nursing though will absolutely destroy any labor power nursing has by essentially turning all nursing into the equivalent of gig-work.
Also a bunch of places are offering 10k+ sign on bonuses for agreeing to work for a single year.
