What makes this extra fun is the corps and media saying there's going to be a recession "any day now" for 11 goddamned months straight. My job is OK but my company is stable and I'm not going to leave just to get laid off the day after "any day now"
Maybe they say there will be a recession to keep people scared, to keep people clinging to jobs they don't like because if there's a recession it will be hard to get hired elsewhere
That's been my thought as well
My CEO (of a tech trade association) has been calling it a fake recession since the month before ‘it’ hit.
Yeah, they say it, but the collapse of commercial real estate isn't going to have the affect that the collapse of residential real estate did.
Even then, the economy is still hopped up on stimulus, pent up demand, and lowered labor participation.
