Yes. All the free market economy guys are making assumptions about efficient markets and infinite choices, but none of that is true. But the reality is laborers don't even have the ability to leave a shitty job even with alternatives available, like just interviewing would use up a precious sick day or cost them hours of wage.
For most jobs in the US you'd be burning a sick day and losing hours of wages. Most jobs in the US do not pay you for sick days, they just don't use that as an excuse to fire you.
