Data from workers about the "post pandemic" labor shortage in the USA

Can you point to interviews/studies/or data that has contacted actual workers to find out the reasons why they are applying for jobs in certain industries. Am specifically looking for information about the USA, but if other countries are relevant that would be fine.

I'm seeing a lot of blame from USA employers that workers are lazy and/or the government stimulus money is discouraging workers from working. This doesn't sound right to me, considering the low amounts of unemployment benefits in the USA.

But I honestly don't know and every article I read has an employer complaining about lazy workers, yet no interviews with people who are actually avoiding those jobs and why. So I'd love to see some actual data or interviews with the people not returning work and/or certain jobs and their reasons for doing so. Thanks in advance.
