    Should a real terms pay cut be accompanied by a compensatory drop in productivity? I think it’s called quiet quitting or something…

      Quiet Quitting is doing only what was paid for and no more. Thus crap pay results in crap output.

        Doing your job and nothing more has been called coasting for decades, but apparently some blogger made a stupid new term that doesn’t involve being quiet or quitting and that is what will be used from now on.

          It’s called working to rule. I see it the other way around, going beyond what you’re paid for or agreed in your contract isn’t being “driven” it’s being a mug and letting your management take the piss.

      It’s called working to rule and people have always done it as a protest in workplaces, we didn’t need some stupid new tick tock friendly name for it.
