Yes, we all do.

Some things to remember:

The higher your education index, the fewer workers you will have and the more professionals.

If you set your education priority total below 120, you will generate more LLWs as fewer of them get educated to professionals. That doesn't help with MLWs or HLWs though.

Be careful what you convert down. For example, if you convert nurses into HLWs, some of them will disappear the following month, as nurses have an age-range of 21+ whereas HLWs start at 24. All the nurses you converted between the ages of 21 and 24 will therefore revert to LLWs.

Hope that helps!

Hugs and respect

I hate it when my nurses disappear before I get to have my way with them :(

If you are buying weapons, they will eat up your LLWs. Weapons take soldiers (LLWs) and Officers (MLMs) to staff them ...

Also check that you don't have auto-building of corporations switched on and if you do, switch it off. If you have shortages across the board, you have too many corps, so close down the unprofitable ones.
