Ask HN: Are you part of the Great Resignation, if so what's your story?

Did the pandemic influence you to be part of the "great resignation", i.e did it motivate you to take an early retirement, work less (go part-time) or even have a major career change (become a farmer, go to med school...).

This phenomena remains the most puzzling macro trend and doesn't seem to be a US-specific one (it is also very visible in UK and European data[1]) nor does it seem transitory so far, so it would be interesting to get a tech sector snapshot of what is driving it.
