Buddy I’ve seen people quit jobs over way pettier things without UBI.

But have you seen a population of people quit jobs over pettier things? The studies aren't based on just one or two individuals.

A group is a collection of individuals. Anecdotes != data and whatnot, but by my observations people don’t always make purely rational economic decisions, so if you were going to a see people quitting over UBI you’d already see it.

Of course this hypothesis is as based in reality as yours, so the only thing we can do is try and find out.
