Quiet Quitting

Quiet Quitting

by Michael Feeley November 2, 2022

 

Quiet Quitting is a new attitude about an old question – How will you show up and do your job? – The choice is about personal integrity and work ethic.

Some people have decided only to work their job specs and the hours hired.

Gallup polls suggest that half of the U.S. workforce consists of Quiet Quitting.

Employers might see people practicing Quiet Quitting as disengaging and just collecting a paycheck, while workers are creating boundaries for a better quality of life and work.

Since the Pandemic, people have been reassessing what truly matters to them. They see how precious life, family, friends, home, and work are to them.

Workers want to be respected, valued, recognized, and fairly paid for their work. They should be.

Some companies are changing to keep their employees happy, asking questions and listening, empathizing, and inspiring people to do their best work.

If you’re not working at full creativity, loving your job, and being happy, you should find another job.

We answer to ourselves. We know if we are doing our job or not.

Here are some questions to consider:

 

> How present are you at work?

> What attitude do you have at work – to care or coast – only doing enough to get by, or will you be a star, giving your all, doing more than is expected?

> How proud are you of the work you’re doing?

> What difference and contribution do you hope to make with your work?

 

We spend so much of our lives working, and we should be happy with our work and ourselves – giving and caring and offering the best service we can – to discover and fulfill our potential and help other people live good lives.

Quiet Quitting makes me think of these wise and compassionate words of Winston Churchill:

“We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give.
Attitude is a little thing that makes a big difference.”
