New data released from the Federal Jobs Report shows more jobs are available now across the nation than before the coronavirus pandemic, but not enough workers.
Experts say the lack of child care and COVID-19 fears contribute to the decrease in job seekers.
Mike Gonzalez, a spokesperson for Texas Workforce Solutions, said hundreds of jobs are available Valley-wide, but business owners are struggling to find people to hire. We re also seeing a similar situation in the foodservice industry and the hospitality industries, Gonzalez said. We re noticing that a lot of these jobs are going unfilled despite some pay raise increases from employers.

An homage to the heroes of the Army tragedy of Mount Ruapehu, in 1990, marked Anzac Day commemorations in Stoke.
Anzac Day, the national day of remembrance, is usually dominated by stories of heroic deeds far away and long ago, but one service took the time to reflect on a tragic chapter of New Zealand Army history which was “as heroic as any from war, but unfortunately too few know of”. Colonel Bernard Isherwood spoke about the tragedy at a memorial service in Nelson. “Unlike most stories shared today, it’s not about battles in far-flung fields,” he said, but here in New Zealand, and resulted in “the greatest loss of life since WWII” for B Company, Royal New Zealand Infantry Regiment.
