This happens in other industries too. A few years ago 60 Minutes did a story about a manufacturing company desperately looking for people to fill their positions. They interviewed the CEO and he said that the shortage was so extreme that they had to partner with a local college to create a training program to get the needed workforce. They went on an on about how hard it was to fill their positions and could not understand it since at the time the unemployment rate was relatively high. Finally, the interviewer asked what the salary for the position was. They, in an extremely serious tone, responded with $13.00/hour. And this was at a time when you could get a fast food job for $10-$11 without a bit of experience.
