This phenomena extends beyond barista bars and carpet walkers in Cubelandia. I have buddies across The Trades that cannot get younger folks to come on board. Demands of salaries not commensurate with their experiential level nor tool box inventory. The rubber meets the road, wrench turnin', real world learnin' apprentice system is established and works but delayed gratification and payoff seems to be a concept that was lost in translation with the Z's & M's.

Apprentice plumbing jobs are starting around 50k a year here. That's pretty good money for younger folks. They still can't find people.
