    Thanks for explaining it! That’s it, right? I was wondering what tf it was trying to allude to as “quiet quitting”. This isn’t satire, then?

      There’s always been a push towards seeing working as a value in itself, but it was easier to trick people into working around the clock when wages allowed to reach one’s goals (a house, financial stability, sending your kids to college). It’s more difficult when workers live paycheck to paycheck and know that they won’t be economically able to retire.
