[quote=Clifford][quote=moneymaker]I’ve noticed lately that Home Depot, Kohl’s, among others have a lot of young workers. Is it just me getting old or have others noticed the work force getting younger?[/quote]
That is because most millenials are having a hard time finding jobs with their degrees. So, they ended up taking retail jobs.[/quote]
Yes I agree, there are a glut of educated millenials who are unable to find jobs, or are stuck in middle manager positions with limited opportunities to move up. Unfortunately, with the last downturn, many boomers are unable to retire on their savings and are now working many more years than expected. This has led to the older millenials being stuck in entry to middle management jobs and the newer graduates not even being able to get anything other than retail/insurance/realtor jobs. The few that have been able to find something have done so through networking, being smarter than 95% of the rest of the population, or by starting their own businesses. It is a tough time right now to be entering the workplace.
