Around 1999-2000, unemployment rate was very low and labor force participation rate was at an all time high. Around 2017-2018, unemployment rate is very low, but labor force participation rate and wages are so low, you have to go all the way back to 1976 to see a comparison. In 1976, most spouses weren't working full time. Oh and by the way, if you work Uber for a week and quit, you aren't considered unemployed anymore.
