Sure, if you're working in a job, and have skills that are more valuable elsewhere, go for it. A lot of people can do that.
I fixed that for you. Why should anyone stay a company when they can do better elsewhere?
The majority of those "I can get something better" folks... won't.
That is not what the unemployment rate is saying.
Even if they could potentially talk their way into those (generally mythical) "good, easy jobs without real skill requirements,"
Except that isn't what is happening. Employees aren't quitting to look for "good, easy jobs without real skill requirements". They are quitting for jobs that are marginally better in pay, hours, conditions, or benefits. People are leaving jobs that pay $12.00 to go to jobs that pay $13.50. People are leaving part time jobs for full time jobs. People are leaving jobs that have hours that shift all the time for jobs that have stable work hours. It doesn't have to be a unicorn job, it just has to be better than what they are doing now.
