Man, the job market is absolutely wild right now.

At a couple points in the past I've looked at upgrading my career via job change, but with only marginal results, especially being in such a small, yet extremely competitive market such as Asheville. And yet I'm currently gaining 1-2 offers a week, with my pick of the litter. I'd say I've heard back from 80% of my applications, to where before it was more like 10-20%.

Now is definitely the time to shoot for the stars if you're yearning to make an jump in your career and need/want to go outside your current company in order to do so.

fwiw.

A tight labor market is not necessarily a good thing for the economy right now, even though it feels great for current job hunters. We already have high inflation, real (inflation adjusted) interest rates still deep in negative territory, many experienced workers who have permanently dropped out of the work force for various reasons, supply constraints littered through the production/distribution pipelines all the way back to raw materials, many central banks still printing money, and meanwhile we're trying to rapidly implement a massive unprecedented switch from the predominant energy source (fossil fuels) to other sources which may or may not be scalable and won't be cheap.

The main aftermath of disrupting a heavily indebted global just-in-time economy for two years has yet to be felt, IMO. And that's not even including the possibility of major conflicts.

For BARRY BONDS how it "worked" was his head doubled in size and his homeruns escalated at an age players with normal sized heads (like Ken Griffey Jr) regressed. Link these "reports" or I'm predisposed to think you're being sketchy...something I've never accused you of being. Yes include the DOCUMENTATION of Babe Ruth shooting himself up with bullspooge. Til then you're full of bull****.

Not sure how many of them would've been working, but there are about 1M less people alive in the US than would have been without a pandemic. Some number of them were workers, and added to that the number who have chosen to leave the job market permanently or for an extended period, and you have real reductions in workers that won't be solved quickly. We'll be fighting this for years and there are no easy answers.

No way Chandler goes to the NBA not as up n down as he's been .Someone will draft him,just not where he deserves to be,but if he stays then I think he finds his way eventually.Kid is special just needs some seasoning,I mean look at Josiah James it's taken him a couple years but he's prob the backbone/leader of this offense and defense
