We should also tell people who are teachers and other professions to all quit their jobs and work in tech too. That will solve all pay related problems, right?



Hey, recent polls suggest that 60% to 90% of nurses want to quit or plan on quitting their jobs. They don't make as much as programmers and should work in tech as well. Who needs or can afford healthcare in the US anyways?


There is an optimal amount of teachers, nurses, etc... that optimal amount is the one that maximizes the person's income.


Perhaps you’ve missed the news of the great resignation and wage inflation?


What wage inflation? Be hires are getting pay bumps to be at or above folks with 3-10 years of experience. It was fine at my old retail job, but for nursing it's just yet another detriment to nurse morale.


Eventually, yes
