What happened to the 'Great Resignation' and 'quiet quitting'?

The nation's labor market continues to defy expectations. Weekly unemployment claims fell to 228,000 last week, and the unemployment rate also slipped to 3.6%. Jeanna Smialek, Federal Reserve and economy reporter for The New York Times, joined CBS News to break down the status of the post-pandemic labor market.

The whole quiet quitting coined was stupid. The reality was that people just refocused their energy to a healthier work / life balance. In the end the company doesn't care if you work yourself to death. You have to take care of yourself first to be productive.

Quiet quitting… just established boundaries. Workmates and coworkers aren’t ‘family’.

Quiet quitting and just out right quitting is very much still going on.

Quiet quitting = Standing on your healthy work boundaries

Quiet quitting is still a thing. People are creating strong boundaries to avoid burning out, sometimes finding a better job that provides balance.

I retired at 59-1/2. Still retired, healthy and living life!

this piece is dishonest. The job market right now and tech is terrible and anyone who says otherwise is lying. There’s simply not enough roles* and there are massive layoffs companies like Microsoft and meta-have had several rounds of layoffs of thousands of people. Not to mention the out of control, inflation spurred by the war in Ukraine. I’d venture to say that this economy is worse than 2008.

Maybe its time for restructuring and reworking of the workforce

All that ish is still happening!! Just to show the disconnect with news and the actuality 🙄

We The People are creating new employment niches. Retirees are back because we can't afford our 'quiet retirement.' TAX THE RICH. HOUSE THE HOMELESS. FEED THE HUNGRY. HEALTHCARE FOR ALL. REGULATE DEREGULATION. Rent up in Florida 30% in one year.

Quiet quit my job 5 years ago and yes it works... so this lady is wrong... I work less and I'm at peace... doing the bare minimum.

Honest question for the comment section: Do you believe more women are working now than ever because they want to, or because they feel they have to?

[kevinvonderscher]

People finally were broke & had to go back to work. Burned thru all of their pandemic welfare handout money .

[seymorefact]

🤣 Still there...i'm doing the quiet quitting and i can tell many are.

Unemployment is down…so is the salary.

I had an intern who retired 10 years ago and she was 10yrs older than me. She just can’t afford to retired. But unfortunately she was not able to cope with the stress at work. Work till you still can.

I know a lot of early retirees (mid to late 50’s) who are still retired. I know several that retired early this year. I expect to be soon.

Honestly, I think the blond “expert” should be looked over, she claimed a bunch of stuff that has nothing to do with what it actually is, workers focusing more on their lives doesn’t go that deep…

Rent's due....that's what happened.
