Regardless of the intent, the response is incongruous to the prompt.

A: This is the job; take it or leave it.

B: You don't really want me to leave it.

The nurses who are not quitting are doing so because (they think) the job is still good; it's just not as good as it was a few years ago. The nurses quit did so because (they thought) they could get a better deal doing something else.
