Retired on the job? 60% is a big number

There are many surveys reporting that most workers are largely unhappy, frustrated and demoralised. Sometimes it goes so far as people turning up to work simply because they still have a mortgage to pay. They have become perilously (for the employer) disconnected from their job. I know. I have often asked these people the question “What do you really like about your job and about working here?” Many of the surveys mentioned above suggest that at any given time over 60 percent of these disgruntled employees are looking for another job.
Have you encountered this retired on the job problem? If so, what do you think explains it and what are some possible solutions?
