vastly overstated..... or in other words a fucking lie.
I've said this repeatedly over the last couple of years. Anyone actually looking for a job would find two general categories of opportunities. One shit tier retail/burger flipper stuff that always needs help because the turnover is insane, the pay and benefits are garbage and the stress is nonstop. Two jobs requiring a specific skillset or license such a trucking license, nursing license or such. In these cases oftentimes what would quickly become obvious is you either had to move to another city or take the clotshot or often both.
People would repeatedly say no one could keep anyone employed and there's jobs everywhere, but if you didn't already have a trained skillset, didn't want shit work and wouldn't take the vax it was frequently "we can't use you". Where the HIGH HOLY HELL were all these super paying jobs everyone kept talking about?
Also in the US there's two tiers of workers: crap pay with nothing, or super high pay, prestigious jobs. There is virtually nothing in the middle anymore, it's either 15$ an hour or 100$
