Mam the towns they are in are not boarded up, I was on about all the town shops closed during the lock that are now open again. If the customer base for the bakery was no longer there they wouldn't be wanting staff now. All the five shops are open now, but not able to operate at full capacity and meet the needs of customers now coming through the doors, plus supplying cafes and restaurants. but it appears on here everyone is assuming that the pay is no good. The pay on the dole is no good according to some, but pay and working is a far better option for the tax payer and the country than sitting on the dole year in year out as some seem to want to. In any case its not just this small bakery thats having problems getting staff, it appears far and wide, and many of them don't require any skills. So you have to ask why is there so many jobs, when there are many out of work. May be some of them will get filled now furlough is finished.
