    Assuming they have senior people they could train new applicants. But its Never good when you offer three to four times higher than the average regional salary and they literally tried to hire the reporter. Seems like they are going taking anyone off streets next. The good boomer “I just walked I’m with a firm handshake” will work here.

      For CNC machine operators you can probably find simple repetitive jobs you can train someone on in a day and then every week show them one more new trick until after several years they are useful for simple non-repetitive tasks and a few years later they are useful. I’m not sure what turner is, but if it is lathe operator you can train someone in a couple days to be minimally useful - on the types of things you should use CNC for, but it will be a year or two before they can do the complex things you wouldn’t just drop to CNC. For engineers you really need a lot more training to be useful.

        Yeah totally right on those. It’s still “workable” for some jobs. An engineer apprentice would take years to be competent. I wonder if they are so deperate to even allow non-university educated to fill in the void. Even a fresh engineer grad has no where near the value as a veteran in a field. I hope they gave them service exceptions.

        I would have expected good working conditions for the workers if they are so short staffed. Black plauge did do wonders for the workers.
