Folks won’t be talking about job hopping anymore, they’ll be engaged in career hopping. It’ll be possible to have three careers spanning 20 years apiece, not including transitional overlap. (Call me forward thinking, but that was my plan all along going back to my undergraduate days in the late 70s/early 80s.)
