I've gone to fast food restaurants (once a Culvers and another Burger King) and both times was surprised to see no Hispanics working at either place, where once they were in the majority. Don't know if that is part of a larger trend, but I found it interesting.

A member of my extended family has been searching diligently since the second week of January, and just the other day landed a part-time gig in a retail store.

In normal times you could have found such a job within a couple of days.

I did not see a single mention about the fact that in many regions of the country, the availability of entry level jobs has been eviscerated by the unending supply if illegal alien labor.

Just what we need,,,more out of work, bored out of their skulls young people wandering the streets looking for “kicks.” And 99% of them will vote for the preezy because of the brainwashing they’ve gotten in school.

It was bad for teens/young people when Carter was president, too.

Even with job experience and degrees it’s very difficult for adults to find jobs, why shouldn’t it be as hard, or worse, for the teens? Most of them will probably still eat if they don’t work, older adults on the other hand...
