Steve’s Barking; Americans are leaving their jobs in record number or not?

 I keep hearing and reading that Americans are leaving their jobs. 

 Well I hope that they have a better job lined up, hell if I had a great job and a better employer or much higher salary I’d give my two weeks notice and leave too. Unfortunately that not what the headlines are screaming, no the headlines are screaming that employees are feed up and their not going to hang around.

Now there is no indication how these employees are going to pay their rent. Buy their food. Go out and have a grand old time without income coming in. Perhaps these employees saved up big time during the pandemic and don’t have to work for a while. Perhaps these people who just got up and quite decided that living in the street and pan handling was the life for them. 

Now I’m writing this gobble gook because it makes no sense to me, there is no unemployment insurance, no welfare state giving money to people who just got up and left their jobs.Why are people leaving their jobs unless they are ready to retire and yes they can, and are exhausted and just said time to retire by, by to work.

* Maybe I’m missing something but why are Americans really retiring?
