  • You are more important than the company, put you and your family first.

  • If your company doesn't provide a pension plan you have no reason to be loyal and stay.

  • Telework is an excuse for minimal working. Most remote workers schedule emails, get their work done quickly than spend the work day doing personal work on the clock.

  • Charisma is more important than performance for career progression.

  • Favorite employees are typically the easiest to be manipulated and taken advantage of.

That's the biggest load of bs I've ever read. I work just as hard as my colleagues in the office and I don't clock out after half a day.

Or maybe I respect my boss because he respects me so I don't have a reason to fuck with him.

That is your choice, but your coworkers are getting paid the same and doing a lot less.

Or they just do as much as I do.
