Are you quiet quitting on your clients?

I have to apologize to you.

I didn’t realize I’ve been “quiet quitting” on you for a while.

What is quiet quitting?

By the way, who comes up with these terms?

Out of the blue, new trends appear with clever (or not so clever) names.

How do I apply for that job of naming these trends?

If you haven’t heard about the latest rage “quiet quitting”, it’s when workers log in at the beginning of the workday and log out promptly at 5 PM or 8 hours after they clocked in.

Workers are being electronically tracked by their bosses like never before.

Your boss knows exactly how many hours you were at your computer and how much work you accomplished.

Workers aren’t interested in going above and beyond to impress their boss.

They’re not on the fast track to getting promoted because they realize very few people get the promotions they deserve.

These days you log in and go through the motions to get the minimal amount of work done in an eight-hour window.

Kinda like a government job.

They are only there for their paycheck.
