No, that's "walking off". Quiet Quitting is just twitterspeak for the work-to-rule concept.

This or OP's thought would make sense given the way it's been framed.

This is what it actually is, and the way corps are trying to twist it as something wrong/bad the workers are doing is BS.

@SauI_Goodman No. Please stop blaming everything on us millennials.

quiet quitting -- the idea spreading virally on social media that millions of people are not going above and beyond at work and just meeting their job description -- could get worse

Quiet quitters" make up at least 50% of the U.S. workforce

That's what it is.

Why do more if they won't pay or reward you for it?

Employers trying to guilt the average person for not going above and beyond. News flash, boomer. It's a job. Everyone is only required to do the bare minimum and clock out. There's more to life than slaving away for some suit.

Quietly quitting is really just doing your job. I was killing myself at my last company and got jack for it. I quietly quit by just putting in what was required of me and performing the same as everyone else. No more extra effort from me. Then I quit when I got something better lined up.

Quiet quitting is just wallowing in self pity tbh. People would rather force themselves to suffer and justify it than move on or power through, literally choosing the hardest way possible.

Ive always worked like that
This but only when I worked for other people who did not pay or treat me fairly. I decided very early on in my working life that I break my back for no one. Having a "good work ethic" is a neon sign for someone to take advantage and I won't tolerate that.

Being self-employed and working directly with customers is a different, much better story though. I actually enjoy doing thorough and competent work when it's mostly on my terms. The shittiest customer I've dealt with has been infinitely better than the best boss/manager I've had, especially because I've never had to crawl back to a customer I didn't like and kiss their ass.

Boomers have always hated the concept of millennials not being company men. We bounce from job to job, we quit, we do the bare minimum if we aren't happy. It's an entirely different culture and it's upsetting to folks that either wasted their life doing such things or directly benefit from that type of culture.

Honestly it's more beneficial to companies to have quiet quitters than actual ones. You're very likely doing more to help them than yourself.

I was a "company man" and was rewarded for it, but I still agree with the sentiment.
