What are your thoughts on quiet quitting?
Please state your age as well.
Personally, I'm 42 and Generation X. My generation I believe had greater opportunity for financial success than Y or Z. I was raised to work hard. I don't think the quiet quitting way. I come more from a gen x make no excuses figure it out mindset or screw it accept it and work with it mindset.
However I am not mad at Gen Z kids who refuse to go above and beyond in a dead end job. Some of these people clearly don't feel they have a secure path to financial stability in their future. I would like to hear how these people feel.
Let's try to respect each others opinions and learn why people feel the way they do.
Just googled the term...
Can confirm, I am currently quiet quitting. It's a dead end marketing job, where I feel like I have zero passion and motivation to do it, but I live in a pretty decent apartment and rent isn't getting cheaper. Some will reply to this and say, 'work harder' or 'get another job'... It's been a work in progress...
I am currently going to pursue something I can enjoy doing daily, this just isn't it for me.. So I scrap by, everyone in the company pretty much hates me, but you know what? I don't care... The world has enough of their stupid products and marketing is all BS of how we can manipulate people on social media into buying more crap... I know, this is a pretty bad attitude to have in a work place, but I'd rather do something that helps people rather than cram marketing down their throat... I guess it just comes down to people's personalities and maybe their in the wrong career.
