I think so many people have been laid off they're just mass applying to everything now.

And again, outside of the internet I don't hear anything about this.
Cause most people out there are MSM bots. MSM says the economy is the best it's ever been.

When it's absolutely not true. Unemployment has been rising past 18 months, most "job" creation has been part-time/low wage jobs, and they are doing an up to 1M downward revision of the jobs in the last 12 months.

I also think most companies want to see how this election plays out.
