My thought exactly.

A lot of people are coming out of high school and college expecting to get a really nice job right out of the gate. ?I know somebody just like this who ran out of unemployment a long time ago, but is still holding out for a ‘good’ job.

Yup, nailed it. Before I retired a while back, I interviewed prospective employees for open positions. Just one example of many, a young gal fresh out of college demanding I offer her more money for a starter position. She wanted some $30G more than the position offered. Argued with me as I nudged her out of the door. Another guy, in his fifties, was very pleasant as he offered to do whatever it took and would take anything. I hired the old guy, and he worked great. Too many spoiled young people expecting more than what they're worth.
