Take this job and shove it!

More people are deciding to quit rather than putting up with a micromanager or jerky boss, working constantly, having to get on 58 Zoom calls a week, etc. So what's'a'goin'on with all of this?

Key topics:

✔️ In the same way that no one cares if Billy Bob's Staffing Agency won't represent them if they decline a job offer, guess what - the same is true now with actual hiring companies. The days of ghosting candidates and acting like an a-hole during the interview process yet still expecting to attract in talent are gone.
✔️ Likewise, acting like a jerk to your employees and expecting them to stay and obey = not gonna do it.
✔️ People are getting tired of trading time or labor for money. Let's examine the results and stop obsessing about the process.
✔️ "But, but, no one wants ta work now!" Really? A person applied to 60 jobs he was qualified for, got 1 offer and it was a lowball. Companies are the candidates now. Job seekers want to know what you have to offer them and it ain't foosball tables in the break room or unlimited sodey pops in the fridge.
