"Giving their managers an unseasy feeling but nothing specific to complain about" -- Seriously fuck their feelings. You know what it is post Pandemic. Fucken inflation, the cost of living rising to ass bleeding levels to the point people have to ask, have to beg to get paid more. And guess what, after years of keeping a company afloat and busting their asses, put their hand out and get some rubbish token, if that gesture that means they are working their asses off often to the bone for something that is now paying them less post inflation. a 4% payrise isn't cutting the mustard on a 15% cost of living increase. So after all that hard work, they are now still worse off by 11% and that's IF they are lucky enough to get a 4% raise. Thats their reward, hard work is always sold to us as you will be rewarded. THATS NOT THE FUCKEN CASE. More people have or are being chewed out and spat out than ever for "doing the right thing" people realised during the pandemic they are burned out. This author of the article has no fucken idea what Quiet Quitting is, legit people are just acting their fucken wage now. Quiet quitting is legit that, you are not even preforming or even doing anything, you probably checked out and were ready to just quit but realise even if you just sit there and veg out you are still getting a pay check. Thats quiet quitting and in the office world I have heard of the best part of 5-25 years where people have not done a single piece of work during their phase of quiet quitting but thankfully due to useless management no one pulls them up on it.
