re: Is there a shortage of qualified mechanics?

Shortage of qualified mechanics, contractors of all types, doctors, nurses, strong teachers, clerks of all types and for all kinds of stores, people who can do the simplest math, people who can think on their feet, people who will show up for work on time and consistently, etc, etc.

Blame the education system, the welfare system, the woke agenda, Obamacare, etc, etc.
