    People, always remember that you’re free to leave. Never make yourself believe you’re stuck in a job, because you always have choices. Just don’t leave your current job before finding your next job, that will lead to a whole new set of problems

    I love these videos. They’re hilarious and they really capture the nonsense of corporate incompetence, bad management, workers expected to “do more with less” so big shots get bigger bonuses, and the whole senior management “spin” when company performance is disappointing because of stupid policy decisions that they themselves made despite being advised otherwise. Glad I’m retired and out of that crap and I bet it’s a thousand times worse nowadays. I feel bad for the kids stuck in today’s corporate world.

    Quiet quitting where you do what your job description is and that is all. Gone are the days of working hard for a promotion, once you don't give a fuck and do just that you'll find most jobs quite easy.

      it just sucks that most companies learnt all the disgusting tricks from each other worldwide, and now all job description contains literally the "...and whatever sht your boss tells you to do" as the last sentence. Then good look sticking to your job description. These videos are indeed very well and funnily done, but real life is much much more sinister than these situations presented here. Most of the time you will be very carefully and cleverly strategucally cornered by your manager and/or hr.

    When I hear team player, I start looking for another job. I'm an overachiever, so a team usually means I get tied down with baggage, which lowers my performance, which will reflect poorly on my next review. Fix your garbage reviews or sod off with your team player nonsense - you forced me to be this way just to survive.
