If employees were to do ruthless "business as usual", people would join a company, not work much, jump ship to another within a few months. Wasting everyone's time, energy and money. How does that sound?
- jerf 3y agoYou speak as if this is a hypothetical thing that literally no employee is doing? What it sounds like to me is how a certain segment of the employee population is already behaving, so you hardly need to hypothesize about how it sounds when you can just consult reality.

- nine_zeros 3y ago> As an employee I think every time you do that you are burning some credibility (assuming you are honest about your work history) You are, but like you said, only if you are honest. But why are you being honest in a game where the rules are "business as usual"?
