Well COVID killed a bunch of people and disabled a bunch more, so those people dropped out of the workforce. There's also the fact that Baby Boomers are retiring. That means that economy right now wants more workers than are available which puts pricing power in the hands of employees.

And the idea that you should job hop to get higher wages and that employee loyalty to employers is for suckers has trickled all the way down and people are talking about it and there's a noticeable uptick in unionization drives.

The idea that everyone just up and quit is probably not correct at all, but I don't think its accurate to say that the environment isn't looking any different from the past ~30ish years.

I think the Fed is about to stomp the shit out of all of it though.
