> Look at any graph of resignations or quits, they dipped.

The data there may be misrepresentative, as your local burger flipper or gas station is not likely to report people quitting jobs anywhere, and people moving off of businesses that were closed by lockdowns weren't reported consistently either.

The ones hit hardest by the "great resignations" are these small-scale employers, who have barely survived two years worth of lockdowns and had to fight for both customers and employees with big-brand stores and franchise operations before that.

For better or worse, the pandemic and its aftereffects will thoroughly disrupt local economies.



If the data is misrepresentative, what evidence is there for the 'Great Resignation'?
