Hard time getting service workers - is this only a thing that happens end of year/Jan? Or is it result of covid? I feel like I have to kiss ass to even get a handy man to come so something . What is going on???!!!!

I live in an area where service workers in real estate constantly suck. Even when they show up.

Hello everyone I have 29 years as a dental professional in Texas. I started as a dental assistant back in 1993. As my career progressed as a RDA, I moved to the front office and eventually management. I even taught dental assistants and became the Program Director of a DA program. COVID opened up remote work for me, I manage eclaims, claims corrections and billing for two offices. $20 per hour, no bonuses or incentives, I know I am not getting paid enough! Any input would be appreciated.
