You know the feeling you get when you’re caught in the rain with no umbrella? Likely, you think, “Why, oh why, didn’t I bring my umbrella?” And then, “I hope it’s just a drizzle, or that I can run fast enough to avoid being completely drenched.”
When I read the federal report last week that more people quit their jobs in the past three months than were laid off — a huge shift from the last 15 straight months, when those laid off outnumbered those who quit — I wondered if you felt like you’d been hit by those first few warning drops of rain.
