There's a shortage because people is not desperate enough.
Desperate people usually gain an understanding of the job market really soon and what happens when you are too picky
When you guys up there realize that jobs get more and more scarce because they are still getting done, but either by sourcing external talent or AI, that's when the real desperation will kick in
And suddenly, that spot at McDonald's, serving burgers or cleaning bathrooms, will look more appealing
Sadly, by the point this happens, these jobs will also be out of reach because of automation
You are still young, probably. Don't lock yourself out of the job market while waiting for the world to change.
or, you know, join a union
Noooo you're supposed to panic and work a job you hate until even that option is gone!
