Wouldn’t the ‘sage theory’ simply be that: this is a recession. Perhaps it’s just been too long since the last one (17ish years?) for people to recall recessions. Last time I got stuck in a very boring job too, for 4 painful years. Probably a good time to study, they say.

I'd rather be in a boring job than a stressful job.

I'm on a team that's talking about PIPing me and I have no opportunities to move to internal teams because there are so few open positions at my level. External job posting seem terrible right now in my area.

except the indicators do not show a recession.

I think it could be argued we're in a recession with the smells being buried.

As a whole the S&P is at pretty mediocre growth if you take out Nvidia and the 2 or 3 other tech outliers that are propping up the index.
