it is pretty bad. People have to take those jobs or be unemployed and get so called sanctions (=less money) by the unemployment office. There is no general labour shortage in germany right now. 2 million foreigners are getting unemployment payments right now, which is ~1.000 Euros per month (housing included). In addition, 7 million german people are out of work. All in all i guess we have ~10 million people waiting in lines for more work or work at all.
