Workers Stop Going Above And Beyond At Work And Follow The Trend Of "Quiet Quitting," But Bosses Are Not Happy

Quiet quitting! Do you know that term? You may have heard that term from your colleagues, other people, on TV, or on social media. According to Tiktoker @zkchillin, quiet quitting could be a rising trend. And to explain that term, he shared, "You’re not outright quitting your job, but you’re quitting the idea of going above and beyond. You’re still performing your duties, but you’re no longer subscribing to the hustle culture mentality that work has to be your life – the reality is, it’s not."
What does quiet quitting actually look like in real life then? Saying no to tasks that aren't part of your job description or that you don't feel like working on, leaving work on time, or declining to respond to emails after your working hours are just a few examples. People are discussing this trend on social networking sites, including LinkedIn, Reddit, Tiktok, and Twitter. And we've gathered a few of the strongest responses to quiet quitting.
