Why are so many Americans quitting their jobs? • FRANCE 24 English

The latest figures from the United States show a record 4.5 million workers quit their jobs in November. There are now roughly two available workers for every three job openings in the US, driving many employers to offer higher wages. But the trend, dubbed the "Great Resignation", isn't being replicated everywhere in the world, as FRANCE 24's Business Editor Stephen Carroll explains.

I started my own business, I'm not making money yet, but I refuse to work for anyone else for less than a living wage. I'll make it on my own, my current lack of decent income while I learn how to grow my business is temporary. My time is better spent building my own thing.

Employer keep treating their workers like 💩 and telling workers that they could replace us like that and lol looks who's laughing now 😁 treat people better

Because their jobs don't pay much, and due to pandemic, they have long hours, or overtime, exhausted. Besides that, most of bug companies, hospitals, demand their employees to get vaaaxeeed. They are tired.

Motivation collapse. What rewards are out there for the working class? Tradition has been scrapped and hope is placed in being influencers for extroverts and etsy for introverts. Good luck!

Employees are not willing to take the jab.

I’ve lost all faith with the mechanisms of control over the last two years. This article illustrates why I’ve lost faith in the media. People are resigning because no jab, no job. It’s not rocket science. But hey, let’s ignore the elephant in the room. And let’s leave all of our intellectual curiosity and all of our brain cells under a rock somewhere.😡
