Employees, like consumers, tend to follow similar patterns. Like those former consumers of GM and Chrysler products, people will only tolerate poor quality, abuse, or unfriendly treatment only as long as they must. Once there is a viable alternative to these abusive employers, the truly good people will bail, taking their intellectual property and abilities with them. At this time supply and demand has opened a window to allow employers to extort maximum work for the minimum price. Having said that, the unionized workforce has been on the decline for some time. Perhaps the blowback will unclude an increase in workers collectively insisting on fair treatment. One of my favorite quotes from, " Negotiating Your Salary" is 'quality is remembered long after price is forgotten.' Like all cycles, this one will pass. It will be interesting to see what comes next. You have hit a hot button Marguerite. Employees, like consumers, tend to follow similar patterns.
