    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

      I'd use this to my advantage and cherry pick.

        Stunning coincidence.

        Only non-witches get due process.

          No way they won't.

            You wouldn't have to settle for just anyone that has the skillset.

            You could choose the best dressed that have the skillset.

            And you wouldn't have to hire fat smokers.

                    Wonder how long the bonus will last? Wonder how many will take them up on their education offer?

                      Looks like the pandemic is driving employment more than unemployment benefits, at least for the leisure and hospitality sector.

                      https://www.reuters.com/business/amid-covid-surge-states-that-cut-benefits-still-see-no-hiring-boost-2021-09-17/

                      Overall employment in the leisure and hospitality fell about 0.5% in the 26 states that ended benefits, and rose 1% elsewhere.

                      In Florida, where the weekly average of new cases per 100,000 residents jumped from less than 50 in June to more than 700 in August, employment in the sector declined by 4,000 after rising steadily this year.

                      In Texas, where new infections per 100,000 hit a low of fewer than 30 in June only to surge above 400 through August, the sector dropped 25,000 jobs after six months of steady growth. Georgia, which also saw a dramatic rise in infections, lost nearly 7,000 jobs in the sector.

                      By contrast California and New York, where the outbreaks driven by the coronavirus Delta variant have been more muted and health controls have tended to be more strict, added around 33,000 and 7,000 jobs in the sector respectively.

                        Pfffft. In my home town, every restaurant, inn, and hotel that has a sign by the road is displaying now hiring messages. And it's been that way for a long time.

                          The drive through lines at McDonald’s or Starbucks aren’t tenable to sit through around here. I mean people do, or there wouldn’t be the line, but even getting into one is like trying to find a parking space in the city. You have to be driving past just as a new spot opens up from the street into the drive through lane. Then you have to be willing to wait for 30 minutes plus. There are often signs at the window asking you to be patient and kind to the workers, because at least they showed up.

                          Education is extremely important.

                            Of course we are always gentlemen

                            But patient?

                            It is fast food.

                            Forget patient.

                              The COVID-19 “extended” employment benefit ended nationwide, schools reopened, but not much of an employment bump for September.
