Covid related restrictive policies and the "great resignation"

 There has been many consequences to the way governments imposed severe restrictions since 2020 regarding coping with Covid.

One of the consequences has been the business world.

Here is a great article talking about the "great resignation"

Quote from the below article:

"...The real takeaway is why people are leaving their jobs in the first place—rampant stress, the shift to remote work, a forced reckoning with what matters in light of the pandemic—and what resigning is leading them to do next. Taken on its surface, the Great Resignation foregrounds the language of job status, but misses a parallel, arguably bigger story: the radical realignment of values that is fueling people to confront and remake their relationship to life at home, with their families, with their friends, and in their lives outside of labor...."

After the expulsion of Jews from Spain in 1492, thousands of Sephardic Jews settled in the city under Ottoman rule. By the early 17th century, around 1613, Jews made up nearly 68% of Thessaloniki’s population, shaping its economy, scholarship, and cultural identity. The city became a hub of Jewish printing, trade, and religious life, with synagogues and schools flourishing across its neighborhoods. Over the centuries, however, the community’s dominance began to wane. Fires, shifting trade routes, and political changes gradually altered the city’s demographics. By the late 19th and early 20th centuries, Jews remained a vital part of Thessaloniki but no longer held a majority. The most devastating blow came during World War II, when Nazi occupation led to the deportation of more than 45,000 Jews to Auschwitz. Few survived, ...
