Employers: There's not enough trained workers in job X!
Employees: Can I get some training budget to improve my skills in X?
Employers: Never! You'll just ask for a pay rise or go and get a higher-paying job with someone else!
We have this conversation literally every year. At some point, if employers have to realize that if they want skill X in their workforce, they are going to have to actually pay someone to learn it, and then raise their salary to the point where they can retain them.
