quiet quitting is just a neologism (edit: invented by corporate press) synonymous with alienation, but blamed on labor instead of capital

Quiet promotions are when you get more duties but no extra time to perform them in addition to all your regular ones, and no extra pay. It's a super common technique used by every employer ever.

It's just another thing shitty businesses and workplaces are using to try and justify why there is a labor shortage instead of fixing the actual problem which is low pay in high stress jobs

I always thought quiet quitting is when you just stop showing up for work with no notice.

I've been half-assing the bare minimum at my job for 10 years. That's a pretty normal thing to do.

It is a fake trend.

What it really is is hating your job because they make you do the work of two people, and if you work hard enough to do the work of three people well that becomes the new normal. They want you to increase productivity without raising your pay, because they want to squeeze all the capital off you and hand it to the suit monkeys.

I'm sure familiar with that. I just have to hope nobody quits or I get stuck doing their work plus mine.

I still remember in radio when I got salary and I was pumped cause it was a huge pay increase.

In reality I made less per hour by a significant margin. So yeah. That.

They did what they were paid to do? They literally did nothing. At all. Which made me have to carry all their extra work.

Huge difference between being lazy and what quiet quitting means. Employers are mad that people dont want to do extra unpaid work or be always available, but the work still gets done.

Being lazy or not doing work is as old as the hills and a different beast.

I thought it was hiding that you were doing work, when in reality you aren't, and collecting the check.

Either way, I work in a very easy-to-follow environment where there's footprints everywhere. Laziness doesn't fly working from home. I'll say that much.

Literally nothing changed. Absolutely nothing. All that happened was that me and the rest of my shift colleagues cheered it on and we all feel far more relieved.

If they are doing their job based on its description and agreed upon responsibilities they aren't being lazy.
