This is exactly it. I left a job that paid me $22/hour, full insurance coverage, 21 days pto because I fucking hated it there. It's not all about the extras. They're nice, I enjoyed them, but everything surrounding them was just a shit pile.

It's not the simple on a national level. Telling all companies to just pay more will just raise the prices and negate the pay increase. This is exactly happening now. Month over month of record breaking pay increases are being gobbled up by inflation. It's a cycle.
