Francisco Gimeno - BC Analyst "The big quit" as it's called is a strong phenomenon in US and less in other places. The reasons are many: many have been told that they were no essential during the Pandemic. So they just quit, and look for new jobs where the life priorities have more meaning. Others, for this and other reasons, decided to change their lives using their time to get new skills for living and working for the incoming digital revolution. Older people, feeling the same, just quit to, just because they feel like it, find a work that helps living, and not live to work. The change is too strong. Menial works, not creative jobs, are not part of the life of many anymore. This is the acceleration of changes of the 4th IR.
