This guy is so down-to-earth, so reasonable, so logical.
From UPI --
Mike Rowe: "This pandemic doesn't care what your chosen field is, what your politics are. It doesn't go on holiday, whether you are having a beer in a bar or marching in a protest or learning to weld or learning accounting."
While unemployment has soared in recent months, many positions go unfilled because people won't consider something outside their field, feeling their happiness is tied directly to the career they have chosen.
"It is difficult to pivot, but of greater concern has been the message of the last 40 years that says, 'You shouldn't have to pivot,'" Rowe said.
"It's not just a skills gap, it's a will gap. Skilled labor needs better PR and parents need a better understanding, I think, of the reality of pressuring a kid into signing on the dotted line and graduating with a political science degree and $90,000 in debt."
That. Is. Truth.
