I left voluntarily my 9 to 5 job in September. I had actually already made up my mind, but I was still open to consider a part time option, which regrettably was not possible in that company. So, here I am, actually more satisfied than before in my corporate job. There are many way employers could keep their people, but not always they wish to put these in practice.
What is glaringly overlooked here is simply a fair share for everyone. Instead of a hierarchical system that benefits a few at the top while others actually work, what if everyone in a company made the same amount of money? I think, in a corporation the janitor should make as much or more as the CEO. Without the janitor, there is no morale or even a functional environment, but the CEO probably does very little except narcotics and play golf. There is an undeniable dissatisfaction with our current system of essentially, hierarchical slavery. It's always the same, a few profit off the many. Universal living wage is a nice idea, but this is only a start. We, collectively, need to rethink our economy, how and why people labor, and what everyone "deserves."

So true, unfortunately. :( I'm glad you're happier now than you were in your corporate job, Maris.
