I'm confused why they're complaining to bloomberg & not bothering to put ads in some nearby towns/cities.
I imagine there's no shortage of low-skill workers available in the united states, shipping people in from afar seems outrageous.

> including the costs of the newspaper ads they have to take out as part of the process, plus (...), they’ve already spent thousands of dollars they won’t get back.
Assuming a 40 hour work week, they could increase the hourly wage by $4+/hr. and spend the same amount of money. That's a ~50% increase from minimum wage.
Now I feel for the business in this particular case. They had a process, they followed it, spend their money, and got staff. Now the process has changed, but they've already spent the money. It's a sunk cost. That sucks.
