Gaming is a marketable skill. So many skills can be learned through video games such as logistics, project management, leadership, teamwork, etc.

"To reach the next generation of air traffic controllers, we need to adapt," Transportation Sec. Sean Duffy said in a statement. "This campaign's innovative communication style and focus on gaming taps into a growing demographic of young adults who have many of the hard skills it takes to be a successful controller."

🦃 WORKPLACE INCIDENT REPORT 🐔

Date: November 26, 2025
Department: Poultry Services
Reported by: NoveltyHR

We regret to inform you that an altercation occurred in the break room today between Turkey (Senior Entrée Manager) and Chicken (Junior Protein Specialist) over the last serving of stuffing.

Summary of Events:

Turkey claimed "historical precedent" and "seniority rights" to the stuffing
Chicken argued this was "discriminatory based on size" and filed a formal complaint
Both parties are now in mandatory mediation with a side of cranberry sauce
HR Recommendations:
✅ Implementing a "First Come, First Served" stuffing policy
✅ Mandatory conflict resolution training (with gravy)
✅ Installing a second stuffing station to prevent future incidents
✅ Reminder: No pecking in the workplace

Lesson Learned: There's always enough to go around when we practice gratitude and sharing... unlike our break room today. 😅

Happy Thanksgiving from NoveltyHR! May your day be drama-free and your plates be full. 🍽️

P.S. - The ham stayed out of it entirely. Be like ham.

Ford CEO Jim Farley recently shared his "epiphany" about Gen Z factory workers needing three jobs to survive. But I think he's missing the forest for the trees. https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/companies/ford-ceo-on-his-epiphany-after-talking-to-his-gen-z-factory-workers-they-were-saying-they-had-to-have-three-jobs/ar-AA1NBTdB?ocid=socialshare

Farley's revelation: Young Ford workers told him they need to work at Ford, Walmart, AND Amazon fulfillment centers just to make ends meet—surviving on six hours of sleep while juggling three jobs.
His proposed solution? More trade schools. More apprenticeships. More training programs.
But here's what he's NOT addressing:
❌ Why doesn't a full-time job at Ford—a company that made $10.4 billion in EBIT in 2023—pay enough to live on?
❌ Why have blue-collar wages stagnated for 20+ years while housing costs have skyrocketed?
❌ Why are healthcare and childcare costs now equivalent to a second mortgage?
❌ Why is the burden of poverty wages externalized onto workers and government assistance programs?
The problem isn't a shortage of workers willing to learn trades. The problem is that trade jobs no longer provide the economic security they once did.
Training more workers for jobs that don't pay a living wage isn't a solution—it's just creating more people who need three jobs.
Real solutions would include:
✅ Wages indexed to local cost of living and inflation
✅ Comprehensive healthcare coverage at no cost to workers and minimal dependent cost
✅ Childcare support and housing assistance
✅ Profit-sharing that gives workers a stake in company success
✅ Work-life balance that doesn't require sacrificing sleep and family time
When a Fortune 500 company's entry-level workers need government assistance despite working full-time, that's not a labor shortage problem—that's a wage problem.
It's time we stop asking "How do we find more workers?" and start asking "How do we make these jobs worth working?"
What do you think? Are we focusing on the wrong problem?
