I hear this all the time about other fields -- "there is a shortage welders" etc. But these jobs are 30-hours tops, or only for 8 months, or similarly limited, and often located in places like rural Missouri, where there is no overflow housing and nothing to do. For 50/hr -- yeah maybe. I'll be bored as shit and living in a shed, but that's decent money. But for 25/hr? Screw that, I'll pick up a side job here or something.
