That is a good observation for the most part. However, someone who had worked in a government job, or maybe a union type of job where you build seniority, that might be too much to give up on account of one asshat who is a lousey leader. In my particular field, just putting in your two weeks notice is virtually never an option, so I've learned how to deal with difficult situations that inevitably come up sooner or later.

And besides, if someone is showing up for a job they like, and doing what is expected of them, why should they feel they have to put themself back on the street looking for a job when its someone else who is in the wrong?
