A shocking amount of plumbing is just fixing someone else’s ‘quick fix.’
Every call starts with: “Well my brother-in-law tried something first…”

Every call starts with: “Well my brother-in-law tried something first…”
I don't mean like “hard to find good people," I mean like full on vanishing act stuff.
I’ve had candidates who were all-in during interviews, asking about start dates, benefits, everything… then just disappear after the offer or stop replying mid-process. Same thing with a couple subcontractors we were about to bring on.
Could be just bad luck stacking up, but it feels like there’s been a shift in how people are showing up (or not showing up) over the last couple months. Is it the new generation of workers? or what?
Anyone else dealing with this or am I just in a weird pocket of it?
