I hope people are finding the jobs they are looking for, because this is insane!

Something people don't think about is child care. If schools aren't in session someone has to stay home with the kids. If one kid in a class test positive for COVID and the whole class gets quarantined at home for a week or two someone has to stay home from work.
It doesn't matter how much you offer someone per hour to work if they don't have someone to watch their kids while they are at work.
