  1. People need to stop associating QQ with Gen Z. It was millennials who started it, and called it “acting your wage.” It’s the same exact thing. We still have a bunch of Gen Zers who aren’t even old enough to work yet. The oldest Millennials are turning 40. Way more millennials working, and quiet quitting, than Gen Z. But this is something Millennials and Gen Z should get together on. It’s a good thing. I noticed years ago that I was the guy who would always pick up those little bits of extra responsibility and work in my job. I made sure I was the guy managers could trust with little extras. If they needed someone’s help, they asked me. I made myself more valuable to them. After years of doing that, I noticed that I wasn’t receiving ANYTHING that my colleagues weren’t also getting. I was just doing more work and taking more responsibilities and getting nothing at all in return. I wasn’t even expecting raises for it. But I was hoping for more than nothing at all. So now I’m the guy who clocks out on time, does what my job description demands, and I forget my workplace exists when I leave.
