- spencerflem 4y agomy spitballed guess- people who were working retail type jobs werent able to during the pandemic and then realized, hey, this is optional. I survived without working a shitty job for poverty wage. Why go back?
- toqy 4y agoI don't think it's new, but a lot of people got a taste of what life is like when they aren't breaking their back for minimum wage thanks to the pandemic
