@bluewave_kiwi@mastodon.nz @BobLefridge@mastodon.nz By and large, I agree... However, on the other hand, there is some substance to Act's claim of certain "relatively useless" professions seeing an influx of immigrants - namely, the sudden proliferation of "beauty therapists" (in the form of nail salons in particular) and "bubble tea shops" that have been popping up like wildfire all over town recently. (That said, I do prefer that these go up vs yet more Vape stores, if I had to choose one)
