Could it be the recession is over?

This sign is on Route 31 going toward Johnsburg.

I am seeing more and more signs looking for workers.

Have You Noticed the Help Wanted Signs? — 9 Comments

  1. KMart is hiring because their store is closing and they have a lot more traffic for the close-out. Burger King may be hiring because their entry level person is moving up in the store or out because they’ve bettered themselves OR are going back to school. I wouldn’t get too excited yet.

  2. There’s a bit more hiring going on.
    Major problems are too much bond debt, unfunded healthcare and pension liabilities, in spots excess public sector pay and benefits, and then the problems in the private sector.

  3. Anticipating the 15.00 bucks an hour job working at burger king!

  4. Help wanted signs are always out this of year.

    Kids go back to school.

    I have an idea.

    Mark why don’t you apply for that job at Burger King and then you will be busy

  5. Seems like job hiring has picked up a bit.

    Know people whom have obtained full time jobs in McHenry County the last month.

    Not fast food jobs.

    Nothing to do with kids going back to school.

    For one thing housing has picked up a bit this year, including new housing.

    The State $31B Illinois Jobs Now program announced in July 2009 is still ongoing for public works projects, that helps a bit, although it’s funded largely through bonds which need to be repaid.

    The money from the Federal American

    Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) announced in February 2009 is largely spent, although some aspects of that program continue.

    Federal, state, and local debt is an issue that weighs on job creation, along with unfunded liabilities and the cost of government.

  6. That way the establishments will be able to cut the hours over wages and still have enough workers to do the job.

    That is what should happen to the strikers for $15,00 minimum wage to ask if you want fries with that.

  7. Don’t you think it is just because kids are going back to school.

    I was visiting my sister today and they have help wanted signs around to.
