Where are the workers going?

Everyone has heard the phrase “nobody wants to work anymore” or “nobody’s working anymore” or “we’re looking for help, that shows up.” I’m not denying that people are not wanting to work at minimum wage jobs, as that often doesn’t even cover cost of living. Where are the workers going? I don’t imagine people are just sitting at home not making any money. I would think it’d be more likely people would try to pick up multiple jobs. I’m not asking why people aren’t wanting to work these shitty jobs, I’m wondering what people are doing instead. Or, why are so many employers saying people don’t want to work?
