Economic Pulse More People Quitting Jobs

In what has to be considered a relatively good sign that the labor market is strengthening for the first time in years more workers have been quitting their jobs than being fired.  As the saying goes it’s easier to get a job if you have one.

With companies hiring very specialized skill sets that often come from having work experience the hope would be that the majority of these workers quitting are stepping up to new better paying jobs.  The flip side is that the workers could be quitting work hearing that the market is better, not realizing that there are still millions out of work.
