[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it’s an inane title for setting boundaries.  A lot of boomer workplace holdovers - go above and beyond, don’t make a fuss, and clock-watching - may have benefited those workers but demonstrably do not benefit workers now.

I have a killer work ethic and have always done every job I’ve had to the best of my ability.  I beat deadlines and solve problems.  But I’ve never been one to put in a lot of extra time - why?  It’s a weird optics thing that only impresses employers that favor workers who prioritize work over personal life - skewed priorities IMO.

The workplace will replace you, manage you out, etc on a dime.  So why should any worker make extreme sacrifices for said workplace, unless they are owners or upper management (and being compensated as such)?  No reason. [/quote]

I certainly regret working late nights, or at home or going the extra mile for great quality work… only to be ina group overhauled by new leaders or insecure bosses.

Maybe before disillusioned people started their own small business or consulted. Today those top performers just stop trying to overachieve, and achieve. [/quote]
