@Radical_EgoCom Quiet Quitting (not working unpaid hours) is Setting Limits, good in any relationship. Rested employees tend to be more productive in allotted hours, but people miss that.

Why so many negative articles? Crabs in a bucket, people pulling everyone else down to their level. People don't want to feel stupid or lazy, or be noticed looking different, so they write about it. Those that think they benefit from unpaid overtime also encourage writing about it, using the derogatory tag quiet quitting. (No, it's not entitlements, it's benefits.)

However, "quiet quitting" is now a thing because more and more people understand the trade offs, and only want to work for hours paid and then actually enjoy having a life. (I mean, think about it: If you're paid $x for 40 hours, but you work 80 hours, aren't you really working two jobs at $x/2? Google employees, I'm looking at you.)
