Exactly. There are still fast food places around me advertising "Up to $10/hr." Why do that kind of job where you have no idea what your schedule or hours will be, when LogisticCo or FabricationCo is offering $19-20 with a dedicated schedule for 40 a week?
All the warehouses that sprung up around me in the past few years can't find people either, even at $19, but I suspect that's less "people don't wanna woooooooork!" and more "we've soaked up all of the available people in this particular area, and johnny-come-lately doesn't have any people to attract."
