Slacking off just because "I don't get paid enough" is just you being lazy. I'd say taking pride in your work doesn't mean you are lazy, or that being lazy means you don't take pride in what you do. To me, being proud of my work is doing it correctly and efficiently. Being lazy is not going above and beyond. And I have worked a number of minimum wage jobs, and you get lazy real fast.

Doing extra work suddenly becomes a regular responsibility, so your workload piles up and you have nothing to show for it.
