Man, that's crazy. Lifeguards (assuming those are the shortage) used to be a job everyone wanted and paid really well in relation to other summer jobs.
I'll add to the fact that it's almost impossible for the average person to get swimming lessons for kids, too.
If classes are open to registration, it's full within minutes.

According to the article posted above: "He said there is less demand for swimming lessons in the summer months"

God, why are people so oblivious in airports. Guy sitting next to me in West jet lounge takes off his flip flops and puts his dirty bare feet on the table in between us. GTFO.
