Does it say what kind of jobs?
No, but you can infer that they aren't temp jobs.

Man, I saw a video the other day about bricklayers.
They make money hand over fist.

It's a very strange labor market right now (and it has been for a long time now). There are lots of high-paying entry level-ish jobs being advertised and yet people are working multiple low-paying part time jobs instead.

I guess it really depends on the individual.
Some places I work, the people there dont have a clue what they are doing.
They are just a warm body filling a position!

Yeah, it's some sort of mismatch between supply and demand. There must be a ton of people who just aren't capable of doing a challenging job, regardless of pay.

Some people really struggle.
There are a bunch of good jobs, and companies do take chances with employees...then they just dont show up after their first paycheck.
Can you believe this?
I dont know how realistic it is.
A POUND a brick!

It depends how import laying those bricks is.

It must be a grueling job, though.
