#Melbourne tooters! My son-in-law is looking for work. He's a skilled sound engineer with qualifications. He's also spent a lot of time working on installing, repairing, and tuning AV kit in homes and businesses. He's also got years of experience as a cafe manager and barista.
He'd be happiest doing sound engineer work or with high-end audio gear.
Know of anything? Let me know and I'll point him in the right direction.

All our regulators asked was of the price-gougers was that they come up with the thinnest, least-convincing comb-over and in return, these regulators would pretend not to notice the glaring bald-spot shining through.
The one weird trick that these guys have hit upon is to use industry-wide "pricing consultancies" - clearinghouses that pretend to offer individualized price advice to each seller in a market.
3/
Now if only we could efficiently implement some kind of of "pricing consultancies" for workers and consumers!..

A federal court ruled Tues that #FederalReserve Governor #LisaCook can remain in her position while she fights Trump’s efforts to fire her.
The ruling, which will be appealed, is a blow to the #Trump admin’s efforts to assert more #control over the traditionally #independent#Fed, which sets interest rates to achieve its congressionally mandated goals of stable #prices & maximum #employment. #Congress has also sought to insulate the Fed from #politics.

The American jobs market has been running in a much lower gear than previously thought, according to a preliminary report released Tuesday.
> The US #economy added about 911,000 fewer jobs than initially estimated for the year ending in March, the Bureau of Labor Statistics report suggests. If this were to hold – the final annual benchmark revision will be reported in February 2026 – it would be the largest annual revision to US jobs data on record.

I suspect the #whitecollar #recession if it arrives will sharpen the need to rebuild the #birthrate
I say this because it's quite likely the majority of new #jobs will either require #strength and #fitness or extreme #adaptibility.
Specifically, they'll require the kind of attributes that put oldies like me at a disadvantage.
