Where did the workforce go? Is anybody out there? It's such a confusing concept to grasp and it has been going on since the pandemic really grasped our nation. What we're feeling here in the Treasure Valley isn't isolated only to us-- it's a nationwide trend.

Pull up to just about any business in our area and you're going to see the same signage: we're hiring. Business of all shapes, sizes, types, and focuses are feeling the pain. The rhetoric aimed towards employees is rather aggressive: "people don't want to work" and "kids these days just don't get it".  Is something greater going on?

Regardless of what each individual situation may entail, at the end of the day Idaho's employers have jobs and they're looking for employees.

Maybe you find yourself employed and needing change--or maybe you've been out of a gig and you're ready to get back in. Need a side hustle? That's an option too.
