Default Pardon my Vent

Every small business in NH is struggling with staffing this year,so what do our legislators do to help out? Make more difficult labor laws.
Got this yesterday from the State of NH;

Effective 7/14/19, the Youth Employment Law pertaining to Night Work limits the hours that youth 16 or 17 years old may work in any shift during a work week. Specifically, no youth who works more than 2 nights in a week past 8:00PM or before 6:00AM shall be permitted to work more than 8 hours in any shift during that same week.

This means that any kid working a 4 to 9 shift cannot work any other 8 hour shifts for the week.
As it is,youth labor laws are extensive and tricky to follow since they change when school is in session and vary with 14/16 and 16/17 year old kids
Sorry for the rant
