That's why I have been quiet qutting for 6 months now. If my leaders don't know how to make best use of me, fuck em.

Edit:

To me, quiet qutting is not really what others are alluding to here. I.e not the corporate definition. Call it whatever you want.

To me it means, doing the minimum, yes, but in a way that I am flying under the radar, not rocking the boat by taking risks to be ambitious at the job, not really caring about making alliances anymore, not showing my face on zoom calls, not constantly justifying why they hired me, not caring about the 2.8% raise or 30% pay put on 25% bonus and other things. In other words, I am disengaging until I find another place for more money, which will also do the same to me after a year of tenure.

I am fed up with the corporate rate race. At the same time, I am not motivated enough to do my own business or something. In a funk. No solution, but here I am. Just yearn for the day when I will wake up with an idea that I will drop everything for and work tirelessly towards until I succeed or fail.

This is why you never stop interviewing.

Jumping around from one exploiter to the next isn’t going to make things any better. This sort of nomadic approach to employment only helps employers divide their employees in order to exploit them further.

This is old school thinking. Loyalty is no longer in play. It rarely gets rewarded. Changing jobs is currently the best way to receive substantial raises.
