Quiet quitting refers to doing the minimum requirements of one’s job and putting in no more time, effort, or enthusiasm than absolutely necessary. As such, it is something of a misnomer, since the worker doesn’t actually leave their position and continues to collect a salary.
I, for one, have done just that. Has anyone else done the same thing since PSR became a thing? Unfortunately real quitting isn’t an option because I’m too old to start over. But if I was in my 20’s again, I definitely would.
