It's the squeeze. When hundreds of thousands of visitors land in a single market over a few weeks, every operation that touches them feels it at once. Front desks get slammed.

U.S. temporary employment rose by 7,900 jobs, reaching 2.5 million temporary jobs in April. While temporary employment remains below its March 2022 peak of nearly 3.2 million, the latest numbers suggest that staffing activity is beginning to firm up.
