I'm hearing "I can't find workers" more frequent than ever before. I also hear "I can't find work". What they mean is they can't find work to fit THEIR schedule or lifestyle. Like you said, sad but true.

I deal with it everyday. Most of the young guys come with more issues than Sports Illustrated!
I had one guy that the guys call “conspiracy theory” call one of my foreman and say he was going to be late because he got abducted by aliens. Crazy thing is he passed his drug test! Lol I told the foreman that he may have been getting probed but it wasn’t by aliens.lol

An old friend of mine was a Jamaican fellow who was a very good carpenter. He told me this tale of working in Jamaica- he said you would get mad at the guys for not working in the morning and they would reply "an empty bag don't stand, man" so they would stop to eat. He would try to get them to work but would be told "No man, a full bag dont bend" I guess you just deal with what you have and keep moving

Absolutely! Had something similar happen with a crew for me, i just looked at my watch and told them they would start geting paid again when they were back up with tools in hand. Didn't take long for them to "motivate"

Nothing like a South African to provide such insight.

When I hear a Liberal globalist mention "common sense", all I can do is laugh.
