No one wanting to work anymore

The CEO of Walmart was interviewed this morning and he said he's seeing an uptick in Walmart workers vs say two months ago. His guess is that people are starting to run out of the handout money. Perhaps changes are coming?
 
Went out of town over the weekend things I noticed:

  1. Worker shortage everywhere, lack of help.
     
  2. signs on door saying they are out of stock of items due to production shortages.
     


 
I had to go to a town nearby to watch softball. We went through their Wendy's drive through line. Said starting $20 an hour for their workers.

 
Both DQ and McDonalds lobby were closed at a neighboring town last night. Drive-through only at both places. Lack of workers?

 
With UPS offering a $170k salary a year, people seem to be wanting to work more. This will have ripple effects on other markets now and your shipping costs.

That 170k number includes total benefits and such, it's not the base salary. But still good for them it would seem.

My boss said the 170k is over a 5-year span, but everything I am seeing says annual meaning yearly.
