That's been part of the "financial" hub-bub for a couple months. I think they call it "ghosting".

Ghosting is something else. More like dropping off the face of the earth to someone you have a personal relationship with ....not a business relationship or employer/interviewee relationship.

Ok, I stand corrected, I guess the definition has expanded.

And yet pay is still as flat as a flounder.

Or perhaps dropped some as compared to inflation....
Link to some charts Eventually the employers not being able to hire people are going to have to do something via pay or benefits to get qualified people in. If this corporate 'ghosting' is really prevalent now that is. |

Yes unfortunately pay hikes and inflation probably carry a positive correlation. Not the other way around though? ANyway the charts do bear out that under Obama things got lots better. And kind continue that way under Trump though his policies are speeding inflation so that ain't too good without the corresponding pay hikes. Ghosting or no ghosting... 2018 inflation is getting near three percent.

From that chart, it declined for the entire Obama administration and stopped once Trump got into office. Maybe not the best chart to make a point with, heh.

It's called baby boomers. Miker: econ challenged like all the ridiculous reality show zero lovers. You know maybe making America Great means not having to have every able bodied person working their a$$ off...

Fell to 62.9% by December 2013.
Was flat apart from seasonal oscillations for all of 2014 and well into 2015.
62.3% minimum was in September 2015.
Was 62.7 to 63 for the duration of 2016.
Inauguration of Trump was in January 2017.
It was 62.9% in January 2017. It was 62.9% in July 2018.

Where did the other chart go? Can't see it on this device for some reason, that or it was removed.
Scombrid who was in office from 2008 to 2013 when the bottom dropped out? You and greenie both need to realize I am not backing up Trump. Lol I was just commenting that the original chart wasn't the best to use. Umm, so don't get your panties in a bunch greenie. The economy lags behind policy generally anyways, so any of the early 'success' during the Trump administration was due to Obama anyways. |

Regarding the CNN article in the opening post. It offers no specifics on the types of jobs for which there is a labor shortage.
