    I think one of the biggest challenges in 2022 for construction companies will be Data Security & Cybersecurity. We've had several instances where the hackers pretended to be an employee, responding within an email chain and asking for bank or direct deposit info, etc. Our IT dept said the email is not hacked rather just hackers phishing. We are advised to change our passwords. But they claim there is nothing they can do about it. Sounds crazy to me.

    This is very enlightening. I saw a few other people in the topic talking about the labor shortage. I am also surprised that people always say they can't find jobs when there are so many. Maybe people don't want to get a job that is in a different industry.

    I wish I knew where everyone went too. So many jobs available, very little applicants.

    Hiring, and keeping the people we do hire, seems to be the biggest challenge. We have openings across most every area of our company.

    I am still surprised by the labor shortage. There are so many people who are out of a job and searching.

    It is very good to see the overall optimism in the results. It has been a crazy couple of years.

    Hiring people is the biggest challenge for us so hopefully that will turn around this year.
