49
00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:56,680

Speaker 1: human resources, marketing, technology, and administrative Tom, excuse me, um.

51
00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:06,120
Speaker 1: Last time we talked, it seemed like you were reasonably

52
00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:11,480
Speaker 1: upbeat on hiring, given your business and the kind of

53
00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:15,240
Speaker 1: people you were seeing being offered jobs and getting jobs.

54
00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:17,760
Speaker 1: I want to get to the whole point though, of

55
00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:19,720
Speaker 1: what the FED may do, and that's raising their key

56
00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:21,440
Speaker 1: rate by a quarter point by at the end of

57
00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:23,600
Speaker 1: the year, which then may lead to a whole debate

58
00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:26,160
Speaker 1: about g and how many do you do the following year?

59
00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:30,920
Speaker 1: Is this going to affect the any momentum, however modest,

60
00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:33,400
Speaker 1: we have in hiring at this point, I think the

61
00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:36,600
Speaker 1: FED rate is gonna if the Fed decides to increase

62
00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:40,000
Speaker 1: interest rates, is going to be secondary to how the

63
00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:45,200
Speaker 1: global economy responds. Really, the national economy and global economy

64
00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:48,520
Speaker 1: responds to two things. Number one, the election and who

65
00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:51,880
Speaker 1: takes over in UH in January after the November election.

66
00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:54,320
Speaker 1: And number two, what's going to happen with some of

67
00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:58,400
Speaker 1: the UM you know, not as pro business legislation, and

68
00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:01,880
Speaker 1: that is the increase in minimum wage, and that continues

69
00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:03,760
Speaker 1: to take effect in the next two or three or

70
00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:08,560
Speaker 1: four years to come. In secondarily, UM the overtime exemption law,

71
00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:11,760
Speaker 1: which will either happen in December or it will take

72
00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:15,680
Speaker 1: place in June of and those will greatly affect how

73
00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:19,600
Speaker 1: corporations are compensating people, running people, what they're doing with

74
00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:23,160
Speaker 1: overtime pay, people getting laid off, what the salaries are

75
00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:25,200
Speaker 1: for new hires. I think there's a lot will go

76
00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:27,560
Speaker 1: into it, and I think, uh, quite frankly, twenty five

77
00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:31,599
Speaker 1: basis points by the Fed in November or December isn't

78
00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:34,280
Speaker 1: going to have that great effect on those issues. Tom,

79
00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:36,760
Speaker 1: I wonder if you could just offer an example, Uh,

80
00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:39,200
Speaker 1: you don't have to name the company, but an example

81
00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:44,320
Speaker 1: of how you have seen these new regulations changed the

82
00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:49,279
Speaker 1: behavior of employers. Sure, so we're working with a lot

83
00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:54,640
Speaker 1: of companies right now that have millennial workforce. They're hiring

84
00:04:54,680 --> 00:04:57,640
Speaker 1: people out of college. I'm not talking about the most

85
00:04:57,680 --> 00:05:01,160
Speaker 1: expensive areas like San Francisco or New York, but in

86
00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:04,359
Speaker 1: in other cities around the country, and they're hiring a

87
00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:08,840
Speaker 1: millennial group out of out of college, white collar, liberal

88
00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:13,040
Speaker 1: arts kids, and they're getting jobs between thirty and forty

89
00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:17,640
Speaker 1: dollars a year, and they're in either management training programs,

90
00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:21,599
Speaker 1: they're in inside sales, they're in operational roles. And now

91
00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:23,280
Speaker 1: they're not going to be able to work more than

92
00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:26,279
Speaker 1: forty hours a week. And the traditional way that this

93
00:05:26,400 --> 00:05:28,640
Speaker 1: country has been built on the white collar side, and

94
00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:30,880
Speaker 1: the whole story of from the mail room to the

95
00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:35,000
Speaker 1: CEO was put in by sweat equity and and working

96
00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:36,680
Speaker 1: your butt off to get ahead. And now that's not

97
00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:40,440
Speaker 1: gonna happen. So you're not gonna allow people to compete

98
00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:47,080
Speaker 1: unless companies want to spend extremental dollars um to pay

99
00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:49,560
Speaker 1: these books. It is. It's a different mindset than this

100
00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:51,880
Speaker 1: country has ever seen before. You know, I just have

101
00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:54,520
Speaker 1: to tise want to throw this in that big of

102
00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:58,080
Speaker 1: American mery. Lynch Global Research put out a piece by

103
00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:01,719
Speaker 1: Ethan Harris, who who's one of their top economists there

104
00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:05,320
Speaker 1: around the world in eighteen days uh and he said

105
00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:10,119
Speaker 1: that the uh, the question of the election has come

106
00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:14,000
Speaker 1: to the election probabilities far outweigh what the Fed might do.

107
00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:16,680
Speaker 1: So it's interesting, do you think it's a question of

108
00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:20,240
Speaker 1: sentiment or because of the policy changes that that might occur,

109
00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:22,440
Speaker 1: that it's going to make such a big different difference

110
00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:23,840
Speaker 1: to businesses? You know what I mean? Is it like

111
00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:27,440
Speaker 1: they're too Trump is too much of an unknown Hillary

112
00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:30,720
Speaker 1: is more of a known quantity. Trump's offered big tax cuts.

113
00:06:30,760 --> 00:06:32,640
Speaker 1: What do you think that businesses are looking for when

114
00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:34,720
Speaker 1: they think about workers and what they're gonna do next.

115
00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:38,400
Speaker 1: I think what businesses look at and they say, um

116
00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:42,200
Speaker 1: that Hillary Clinton coming in is more of a probably

117
00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:45,640
Speaker 1: a little bit more dissenter of what the current administration is.

118
00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:47,920
Speaker 1: But it's a known commodity and we know what we're

119
00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:52,040
Speaker 1: going to get, but there still is a lot more um,

120
00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:55,040
Speaker 1: you know, legislation, a lot more rules, a lot more

121
00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:58,000
Speaker 1: compliance than that business would like. I think they feel

122
00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:00,680
Speaker 1: with Trump. I was listening to the three CEOs of

123
00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:04,200
Speaker 1: companies that are are nine big, good, nine figure companies

124
00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:06,719
Speaker 1: hundred and nine million in revenue the other day and

125
00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:08,600
Speaker 1: they said, I'm not going to tell you that I'm

126
00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:10,520
Speaker 1: voting for Trump. What I am going to tell you

127
00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:13,360
Speaker 1: is that a Republican president is better for business in

128
00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:17,640
Speaker 1: the Democratic president. Okay, well let's leave it there. Uh.

129
00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:20,880
Speaker 1: We're so happy to have just spoken with Tom Gimbal,

130
00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:25,160
Speaker 1: founder and CEO of Lassal Network. He said it the

131
00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:27,600
Speaker 1: FED may raise the key rate once this year, a

132
00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:29,720
Speaker 1: couple of times next year, but people are really mostly

133
00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:33,480
Speaker 1: focused right now on the presidential election, and I suspect

134
00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:36,520
Speaker 1: the closer we get, the truer that is going to become.

135
00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:40,080
