A dozen restaurants in the Central West End area of St. Louis hosted a job fair Monday in the Chase Park Plaza ballroom but did not see many applicants come through the door, according to the
St. Louis Post-Dispatch.
“We just can’t find staff right now,” explained Billie Kilts, who manages the sushi restaurant at Drunken Fish. “And it’s not just hard to find good employees, it’s hard to find employees, period.”
Bar and restaurant owners are working to recharge operations, but find it difficult to hire enough employees to meet demand.

For more than a year, a sheriff s deputy assigned as a school resource officer (SRO) at a high school in Linn County, Kansas, carried on a sexual relationship with a 15-year-old student, sometimes in his office on campus, according to a federal lawsuit.
The two would sometimes kiss or inappropriately touch while in the school building, the suit alleges.
The sheriff s office, the former SRO, Linn County and the Pleasanton School District are all named as defendants. Former deputy David Allen Huggins is now serving 15 years in prison for three counts of aggravated indecent liberties with a minor after pleading guilty in 2019.
