It’s less funny when you realize that the people around you that aren’t moving jobs are the ones being taken advantage of and despite being a good little worker bee are getting the most screwed by the company.

Companies realized that people don’t like moving jobs every 3 years and that you hate the friction as much as they do of learning new systems. And so they can take advantage of you and even if they only get to do that for a few years without giving you decent raises, you leaving doesn’t matter when other workers stay there for 5-10+ years getting underpaid.

Essentially this is the only system capitalism could ever have arrived it. People forget that not only does capitalism take advantage of people through the exploitation of their resources, but it also takes direct advantage of their behavior and psychology.
