I noticed off my regional state public TV (HR), that they had a 6-minute piece on beer-garden closures.
So, the hype here....is that manpower-wise, a lot of the pubs, cafes, restaurants and beer-gardens here in Germany....are simply not back up to 100-percent manpower (2019-wise).
The funny thing is that weather over the past ten days....has been mostly up over 25 C (77 F), and rain has been a marginal thing. So typically....you'd see beer-garden activity soar, and profits accumulate (meaning tax revenue goes up).
Where are the employees? If you go and dig down into this....it goes to various topics. Some were non-Germans, who left for home in 2020 with Covid arriving, and they haven't really made the move back to Germany. Some found better paying jobs. Some got smart and opened their own cafes or pubs. Lets also be honest....on inflation, a number of these jobs simply don't pay well enough to make it a full-time position.
