Based on the story revealed from the respondents, this research explained that the grasshoppers individuals moved from one job to another because of motivational factors (such as financial, willing to learn, willing to search more challenging jobs, etc), basic need factors (self-fulfillment and a need to share), and supporting factors (such as networking, family support, etc).
