Annoying as can be. Several calls per day.

The GC for Ford called the town hall looking for 1,500 qualified construction workers. Pfffft... the lady laughed when she told me about the call.

They'd be lucky to get 1,500 warm bodies. Qualified? Hahaha!

The majority of people here are so lazy & inept, it's truly unimaginable.

The story I tell people to put it into daily life context is the time I ran through McDonald's for a small burger on the way to a meeting.

Got down the street to inhale the grease (only quick option here) & there was no burger on the bun.

Several friends have gotten completely raw burger patties on their buns... just as one example.

Everything here is that way, sadly.

So finding 1,500 skilled construction workers in this region who are willing to work?

Obviously, there isn't housing or infrastructure to accommodate all the workers, or the 6k projected employees, so the foreign investors are harassing the hell out of every homeowner I know.
