My daughter quit her high stress job to go to school to become a hair dresser so she could have less stress and start having kids. Actually, I see them as grandkids.

And my other daughter did the same, except she just quit period. They are both in their early to mid 30’s and even they joke about that scene in My Cousin Vinny. :)

Yep. American workers have options. And that is a good thing.

[Though President Trump frequently takes credit for the booming U.S. economy, he has alarmed economists in recent months with his aggressive trade policies that target Canada, China and the European Union.]

Ah yes, always the parting shot.

“Better opportunities”?

I thought the only way to get a better opportunity was for the State to force a $15.00 minimum wage.

Cause its unfair that working 20 hours a week at Jack in the Box won’t pay the rent on a 2 bedroom apartment, right?

"The rate of U.S. employees quitting their jobs reached its highest rate in 17 years,"

No surprise that it extends into G Bush's presidency. The stage was being set almost immediately after Ronald Reagan left office.

Odd headline. Seems to me this record number of Americans would be smarter than to quit first, then seek another job.

Or where we are in central Florida ... workers quit their jobs cause they cant live on PART-TIME work, with NO benefits.

Residents of California city once known as ‘America’s foreclosure capital’ are set to get monthly $500 stipend, with NO strings attached, in bid to boost local economy
•The Universal Basic Income program will be tested in impoverished Stockton, California with some heavy backing from nearby wealthy Silicon Valley
•A $500-a-month stipend will be given to 100 residents for 18-months
•The money comes with no strings attached with the program aiming to see how raising the income floor will change people’s financial situation
•The money can be used for anything with the idea that with some financial empowerment people will be able to start new ventures, afford food, pay bills
•The idea of the test is to see if the financial help will up school attendance and health and possibly contribute to female empowerment
•The Stockton test will be funded in part by Facebook’s co-founder Chris Hughes whose organization, the Economic Security Project, contributed $1million

The money will be used for booze gambling and drugs, the stupidity of these people is stunning, Ill give them money so they can make a better life for themsleves

All four of my kids have either gotten new jobs or offers in the past month. It’s a good time to be starting a career.

One is in the Space business. He started a new gig at NASA last week. Timing could not be better. He graduated as an Astronautical Engineer a week before Trump announced Space Force.
