There is so much negativity surrounding my coworkers / managers. Its clear to me that pretty much everyone has given up. Very few people are willing to take over job responsibilities for those who were laid off or quit, and frankly why should they. Why should anyone go the extra mile to help out right now. Its like, Yeah Il get right on that after returning from my furlough , and im not sure whos going to pick up the work john doe left behind, but it sure is backing up.
Walk by any office today ...of anyone who didnt take Friday off, and look at the people in there just shaking their heads. Its funny to strike up a conversation by asking "hows it going" That question usually gets responded to by sarcastic laughter followed by something a manager asked them to do, which isnt going to get done without an argument. This is the environment we work in.
I guess I still feel lucky to have a job given how many were let go, but it really is terrible right now. Moral is at an all time low and there's really no end in sight to this mess were in. It will seemingly take YEARS to climb out of this. Everyone has a F U mentality and I really cant blame them. Just my thoughts on this place I used to really enjoy being a part of. Now every day is pulling teeth.
