Sarah O'Connor asks in the FT, why don't people leave rubbish (exploitative) #jobs... & suggests some answers:
Fear the next job will be worse;
The sunk costs of building a relationship with a manager who allocates hours (in #zerohours contract);
#publictransport limits the choice of locations you can feasibly work;
fear of disrupting vital #benefits payments while shifting jobs;
Benefits rules also declare leaving a job due to low pay is not a 'good reason' leading to 3 month 'sanction'!
