Some of these companies hire for the holiday rush. I wonder if they plan to work skeleton crews to the bone, or if this is just a tactic to hire a now-larger pool of more desperate workers at lower rates for seasonal employment.

The answer is drumroooooooooooll both!

Skeleton crews ran by the 18yo manager who’s been there for 2 years, for the maximum shift where you don’t get a 30 minute break. Backfilled with desperate workers they can “at-will” cut later
