Makes sense!
“In the logistics industry in Japan, there are concerns about the “2024 problem,” in which deliveries are expected to be delayed due to labor shortages caused by tighter regulations on overtime work for truck drivers starting next April.”
I hate how it’s framed this way. Let’s call it what it is – companies are too tight to hire people ever since regulations now prevent them from working people to the bone. Now consumers will pay the brunt of if because companies would rather scrape the bottom line.
Frozen balls might be a welcome change next summer
