Wrong choice of words: I meant "recession" -- and since the rest of the
world has had those a few times in the last 60+ years, I see no reason to
assume those recessions didn't hit the US too. During such a time, it would
be quite hard to find a job.

Amazing. First you say that you (with your higher education in progress)
dictated your own hours and work schedule, and took all the unpaid
vacations you wanted, and then you dare accusing *other* employees (those
with less education) of being unreliable...
BTW, your blanket statement "low education employees are notoriously
unreliable" is an insult to a very large group of people.
