This is just an observation but is anyone else noticing worker shortages in the industry in their areas? I feel like if our industry doesn't start raising wages it is in big, big trouble. It irrates me that places like Target or Amazon pay more than leasing, grounds, and maintenance tech positions. It's a touchy subject but I feel like for all we do we are way under paid and under appreciated. I also don't understand why companies don't seem to value education, I have 15yrs experience, a business degree and 3 industry certifications but would get paid the same either way Maybe it's just me but I feel like if the industry doesn't focus on this issue their will be nobody at the site level running the properties before long, when they can get paid more at less stressful jobs.
