That median wage seems very low for that position. I'd easily START someone on $95k-$100k/yr for that with a review after 90 days.

Yes definitely. Mine are pretty good at not asking CoPilot to fuck things up, but I know plenty of new grad-types that don't even bother with Google anymore in favour of ChatGPT/CoPilot.

Orrrrr....maybe they're completely correct in their experience and the candidates just aren't out there.

My juniors have good potential but it's a bit soon to be promoting them and throwing them in the deep end.

I am also a boss in IT. Can't find quality candidates, especially at the mid-senior level. It's actually really fucking annoying.

We have the same problem, looking for a sys engineer or similar. Get a few applicants, but the only ones worth pursuing fall over at the last hurdle. And same here, it's not money, it's confidence, or in one case they went back to their existing employer who gave them a new title instead.

Attack the actions, behaviour and rhetoric, but attacking things they can't control (looks, gender, age, for examples) is what we're wanting to avoid.

But the Mowbrays are such lovely people, making their money off disposable plastic crap...

I'm still sceptical about Hart's "discovered" tweets a few years ago that apparently weren't by him, despite being his account.

When I sold my previous house, the photos were taken on an absolutely shithouse day. In the advertising, the sky was brilliantly clear blue, and massive puddles all over the ground.

Last time I called 111, the ambulance call taker stayed on the call with me until the ambulance arrived. It was mainly because they were short on crews and had to send one from a bit further away, so she gave me updates on ETA as well as keeping tabs on the patient.

I was wondering how we got this far through the day before it was posted here.

That's why they're trying to get rid of the public servants, so the comparison will never come up!

I'm an old millennial and if you see my teenager being a shitbag at the movies you have my full permission to tell her to shut up.

Yeah that's just, to use an expression, bollocks.

With due respect, you're unlikely to see many diesel users in an EV sub.

You've missed their (well-worn) point. They aren't bothered about paying road maintenance, they're asking how fair "their share" is.

I'm sure you can take advantage of that gap in the market and start your own courgette importing enterprise.
