The results are coming in. Why won't people go back to work? Fear of COVID, inadequate compensation for the work and risk, and matching skills with requirements — a lot of people report seeking work to meet their qualifications and not finding any reasonable offers.

It's not a simple as comparing the number of job openings and people who are unemployed, as many seem to presume.

So, anyone here with football coaching experience (minimum coaching experience: Southeastern or Big Ten conferences), take note :)
