Description

Manufacturing jobs are back on American soil. The factories are running. The roles are open.




But the workers? They're missing.




In this solo episode, Tim Sackett unpacks the growing gap between opportunity and desire in today’s labor market. Why did generations of proud factory families embrace these jobs - and why do today’s young workers turn away?




From cultural shifts and education gaps to lifestyle choices and societal stigma, Tim explores the uncomfortable reasons behind this silent rejection.




Is it a temporary hesitation... or a permanent shift?




And if manufacturing jobs no longer inspire the next workforce, what does that mean for America's future?
