Reply to comment by the-quibbler in What is the best and worst thing about your town? by rabblebowser

Did Claremont Country Cafe on Washington St ever open back up? Last time I was in town it had closed down indefinitely due to "lack of staff". Coincidentally a new breakfast placed opened up where Dusty's used to be. I wonder if they hired all the staff.

Selfish of me, certainly, but global staffing crisis is upsetting my love of food. It's gonna be a few years before that normalizes, between the excess virus deaths and all the early retirements. My predictions say late 2024/early 2025, and places like Claremont will small populations could linger longer.

"Nobody wants to work" became "the world experienced a massive job vacuum due to millions of people literally dying" Can you have negative unemployment? Maybe.
