What the fuck is this gaslighting propaganda bullshit? People in the US have been taking vacations for decades; it’s not exclusive to GenZ, nor is it a “new trend”. I call bullshit.
To be fair, “quiet quitting” is a labour action that goes back decades if not centuries. A more common name is “work(ing) to rule”.
I remember that term from when my teachers were preparing to strike a long while ago. The fact is, most workers, teachers especially, go beyond the bare minimums that their jobs require. It made a big difference when teachers who used to supervise after-school activities just went home instead. In jobs that are associated with “vocational awe”, it’s very common for people to do much more than the minimum requirements for their jobs, so when they engage in a “work to rule” campaign, there’s a really big difference.
Except “doing your job” doesn’t capture that it’s a deliberate change in how you perform at your job, and “acting your wage” is a newfangled way of saying the long established term, with its on Wikipedia page, “Work to Rule”.
‘This New Trend Called …’ is to Gen Z what ‘Breaking News: …’ is to Boomers: it won’t really impact your life straight away but still you feel you should listen to that FOMO calling.
You were young and stupid once. You know perfectly well that back then whenever you did something for the first time it was also the first time anyone in the entire history of the universe had done that thing.

Quiet quitting is just doing your job/acting your wage.
People on the internet love to make dramatic sounding names for normal stuff.

Back in my day when the news said we killed an industry we actually did it
it’s just a new term for something that exists.
no idea why it was every a big deal.
now everything is a culture war for engagement.
was there any drama when we started calling “beouf” “beef”?
Not only was there drama people couldn’t talk about the beouf they’d gotten into without starting it up again
Speak for yourself. I’m all in on this trend and have even begun taking nano-retirements for about 16h each day.
taking a piss now counts as pico retirement.
