Besides, we've all been places where people get laid off and then all that extra work gets dumped on who is left, and they're supposed to be grateful they still have jobs.
#### that. All it gets you is being taken for a patsy. Quit quitting is where it's at. Work hard for what you get paid for, and no more being screwed over to make someone else look good.

Man, I’m justttt about hit this point. Never in my life have I even considered taking a ‘not my job’ approach, but it’s about to get there.
####ing years of doing everything I can, from taking on #### that literally has nothing to do with me to watching tutorial YouTube videos in my free time, working until 2 AM or on the weekend, waking up in the middle of the night thinking about my work yada yada. For what?
To be told my ‘core’ duties are too important that’s why the promotion never materialized? Like, man….####. You.
So dangerously close to ceasing all non-‘core’ output and deferring to someone else. I’m not going to waste my mental capacity thinking about work contracts in the hour a day I actually get to see my child for. Quiet quit my ass, quietly ruining your employees dedication is more like it.
