| 0:00.0 | Marshall here, welcome back to the Realignment. |
| 0:08.4 | Yeah, I think it's an employee market right now, right? |
| 0:12.1 | There are a lot of employers who are looking for jobs that they need filled for various reasons. |
| 0:18.9 | You know, there's good data out there, at least in the last month, that the great resignation |
| 0:23.3 | was actually a lot more weighted in terms like over in the retail and restaurant sector. |
| 0:32.0 | So most of the people who were quitting their jobs and then finding new ones were people who |
