Avoid Meetings (lol) 8. use time you saved to invest time in yourself. did my best.

I learned that quiet quitters must also take all their days off - vacation time, sick leave, personal leave. Maximize these days when you can. Not using them is like leaving money on the table.

I'm quiet quitting because my "supervisor" plays favorites and gives awards and accolades to her friends. And the friends are nothing special. Plus, I qualify for retirement.

I recommend doing private tasks at work. Paying bills in my internet bank, sending private e-mails, doing phonecalls etc. It frees up time when home after work.

I worked a job for six and a half years without a promotion. I won multiple district monthly awards, employee of the month, was number 1 or 2 for my numbers for the year. Was trained across my entire company. Even trained people higher up than me how to do different aspects of their job. Eventually I felt defeated, left out, and couldn’t deal with the anxiety of my job so I began underperforming, being late, getting sick from anxiety about my life and feeling like I was going nowhere. Eventually one day I left after my shift and never came back. I regret not doing my best until the end but should have left long ago.

Good to know I'm on track. I've been doing this for years and am still more productive than 95% of my colleagues...

The colleague that shirks their work the most received the highest performance review! The rest of us were called reliable workhorses. DO NOT BE RELIABLE. DO NOT BE THEIR WORKHORSE. I need to quiet quit starting today.

This is absolutely brilliant. I love the seriousness to Tom vs what he is saying. “Don’t mingle… don’t volunteer…have extra SIM cards so youre not reachable’, it goes so against the corporate grind but is genius.

The strange thing is, is that if a quiet quitter just does their assigned job meticulously, they will outperform the non QQrs, as 75% of most office workers are Goof Offs anyway.

Learned that in the US Navy...Never Again Volunteer Yourself

It's hard to remain enthusiastic in engineering, every company I've worked at bleed your soul dry.

I work mostly remotely. I always help people when a critical deadline needs to be reached, it balances out my lack of availability or bare minimum effort for the mundane stuff that makes up 95% of the rest of the work.

The term “Quiet Quitting” seems wrong. It used to just be called “doing your job.”

watching this after I cried in the bathroom of my job, I can't believe this happened to me at 22

QQ people realized they can get money with no to little efforts, and no one bothers. Extra efforts are actually not wanted by leaders. It's hard depersonalisation of human endeavor. That's how it goes in big corporations, work is pointless almost every moment you're there. Every achievement is soon obsolete. And that's pretty much everywhere. People just do what they have to (do bare minimum) to get their bills paid off, nothing more, nothing else. No higher common sense, no purpose, no belonging, no social life, just lost time at meaningless work.

When in 1942 the Nazi's were the boss of our factories, every worker was a quit quitter. That sais something about our current society.

I'm in the opposite situation. I'm an electrician at the same job site after almost 4 years. Never thought I'd have anything like job security.

Tip: make yourself indispensable for one or two tasks and slack off on things other people can do. Your boss will likely let you off if you can do one or two tasks which they can’t or don’t want to do Whereas delegating tasks to other people is easy.

I’ve been doing this for yearssss without knowing the name for it. Now I’ll have to hone my craft 😂😂

Great, very helpful tips! And I especially liked your facial expression when you talk about social activities. All sorts of "team building" is what disgusted me in all my jobs.

Excellent. Will be doing this going forward 😂

I just dropped out.

I always tell my husband, make sure you get more than you give.

It's what the slaves did under the Soviet system until the system eventually collapsed. So it works!

I recommend being careful with that countercyclical working if you have a security clearance.

Hilarious and great insight!

Great video! Thank you for this! I will start quiet quitting this Monday! SUBSCRIBED!!!

What do you think of this? This is the new retirement trend >>> Several people at my work are at retirement age, and started collecting SS, but they still come to work everyday to collect their full paycheck for quiet quitting. Smart?

It's easier to quiet quit today,Because those work values were never there to begin with.

In my office job the overtime is paid - none is unpaid. I still won’t do overtime even for the money as I don’t really need it, I prefer to have free time and my weekends to be my own. I don’t volunteer for anything now, I don’t want to learn anything new, I just want to work my usual hours and get paid. I don’t socialise with people from work and never will again. I did all these things in my last job that I was in for over 20 years - I won’t make the same mistake again.

You need to add a video about the type of places where quiet quitters can remain undetected indefinitely. Not all jobs support quiet quitting, and not all managers fall for it.

I worked at an office job for a software engineering company. They weren't doing to well so they hired a couple of consultants named Bob. Both were named Bob. Turns out the two Bobs figured out I was laid off awhile back but still getting a pay check and they fixed that glitch. You'd think they could just leave me alone to watch the squirrels getting married and polishing my red stapler. I set THE example on quiet quitting. They added the last straw. It wasn't quiet quitting after that but now I spend all my time on the beach in mexico threatening to take my dollars elsewhere.

Sounds like work. Just doing your job. I always liked overtime. That’s where the paycheck grew. Those paychecks got me into real estate. Now I have rentals. It was very very hard work and required sacrifices. Now. Some days I sleep in and play with my wife all day. Some days I fix stuff and have long hours. Some days I just hire somebody to get my shit done.The contractor sets his or her price. Wage income sucks ass so I recommend loud quitting like Johnny Cash. My unskilled labor starts at 15 bucks an hour and they are always welcome to buy in on a deal. Or better yet bring me a deal to buy in on. When you look back on your life and tell your kids you did just the bare minimum and actually planned to be mediocre I hope the shame doesn’t eat you alive. WTF is this? Too lazy to quit and deal with real wage declining for decades? instead of manning up and moving on to inflation fighting income sources? Seriously this is the advice you give youngsters?instead of work hard and have a plan to get the fuck out of the rat race. You wouldn’t know anything about that though. Would you? I can help. Just ask.

You are your brand, and people are not stupid. Moreover, when it comes to cuts, you will be first in line, and good jobs aren't easy to come by.

Quiet quitting is haram, it’s immoral, people can resign if they want.

Terrible advice!
