I personally know of three folks who used to work in restaurants pre-covid and never will again. One is now a bookkeeper and working toward being an accountant, another went to a local county college program during covid and is now a radiology tech, and the other is working on a business degree while working part-time in a warehouse job.

People are moving up the ladder, or just plain pushing themselves - working harder and getting a good education - so they can get better jobs (and filling the job voids left by all the retiring boomers).
^^This. People are still working, they are just doing different things. I think COVID caused a lot of people to reevaluate their career choice or take a chance and try other things.
