Agree, but summer help is much different then it was just 20 years ago. Colleges are starting weeks earlier then ever before. HS starts a week before Labor Day. Give the kids a week off before they go back and we are talking mid Aug when you lose them. Don’t see this changing so your business model needs to adjust for loosing this labor
