I leave on time, how is that an insult? I’d be much more insulted if someone asked me to work for them for free. That’s what unpaid overtime is.

It’s a compliment. You’re skilled and valuable enough that the company won’t dare to give you any bullshit for leaving on time.

“Quiet quitting” 😂

Because yeah, you only do the job they pay you for, how dare you!

I think “quiet quitting” is just the white collar equivalent to the more blue collar “nobody wants to work anymore!”

Today I sat down at the computer around 8:30, had lunch around 10:55 - 12:00, then at 13:00 - 14:30 I went for a walk with my wife and 6 month old son to feed ducks which he absolutely loved, and I stopped working at 16:10. Adding all that together should equal to… I don’t care. The company who bought us and ruined everything had a 1.5 hrs townhall yesterday with 880 attendees, equating to some €30k lost in man power.

I think they meant the “finance guy” insulted the whole “race” of “developers”, but otherwise they agree.

My company finishes at 4. 3:56 every day I clock out so I can get out of the yard before everyone else and not get stuck in traffic.

My mama didn’t raise no fools. Well, apart from my little brother.

Leave home 5 minutes early, and leave work 5 minutes early. Both of which will probably save you a bunch of driving time.

I typically stay at work until 5pm because I make no effort to come in early and I take long lunch breaks.

This place is an absolute ghost town by 5, and it makes me happy to see that. It seems people mostly have their heads on straight here.

Nothing breaks after 5pm because there aren’t any developers still doing releases.

Technically correct, which is the best type of correct

Edit: as long as you are not part of the infrastructure team. Then things break right after 5 PM.
