In the country I actually live in reports say that there is a huge shortage of waiters and chefs at the moment. And there is -- most of them are leaving for richer countries. What this means is that there are a lot of businesses who don&#x27;t want or cannot afford paying more for chefs and waiters, and not that there are simply not enough people who could serve pizzas in a countryside restaurant.<p>Same goes for tech talent. I was testing the tech market in my home country a couple of years ago, and a multinational company who is (also) complaining about extreme lack of tech talent said that no engineer is allowed to be paid more than ~ $40k&#x2F;year (in that particular office). They pay three times as much in the UK. Well, tough luck then. :)
