Naturally, we 3 00:00:07,880 --> 00:00:11,200 Speaker 1: always like to avoid confrontation whenever possible problem is solved 4 00:00:11,200 --> 00:00:14,080 Speaker 1: from your right Your job might have fired you already 5 00:00:14,080 --> 00:00:16,439 Speaker 1: and you don't even know it. Okay, please explain. Yeah, 6 00:00:16,520 --> 00:00:18,600 Speaker 1: you could have already been fired and have no clue. 7 00:00:18,640 --> 00:00:21,480 Speaker 1: Am I being fired right now? We'll just see your 8 00:00:21,520 --> 00:00:25,040 Speaker 1: contract to talk about it. You could have been going 9 00:00:25,079 --> 00:00:27,080 Speaker 1: to your job for years and years and years, and 10 00:00:27,080 --> 00:00:28,960 Speaker 1: all of a sudden you're fired and you don't even 11 00:00:28,960 --> 00:00:30,760 Speaker 1: know it. Because of a new trend that's going on. 12 00:00:30,960 --> 00:00:33,559 Speaker 1: It's the Jewel Show. And a few weeks ago the 13 00:00:33,680 --> 00:00:37,520 Speaker 1: trend of quiet quitting went viral where people talked about 14 00:00:37,520 --> 00:00:40,240 Speaker 1: how now they're quitting just based on the fact that 15 00:00:40,280 --> 00:00:42,200 Speaker 1: they're just doing the bare minimum at their job. They're 16 00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:44,000 Speaker 1: not trying hard anymore, they're unhappy in their jobs, so 17 00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:45,640 Speaker 1: they're just kind of doing the bare minimum. No, they're 18 00:00:45,680 --> 00:00:47,600 Speaker 1: working their eight hours and they're not going above and 19 00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:51,240 Speaker 1: beyond what they're required to do, which actually I support, Yeah, 20 00:00:51,760 --> 00:00:53,840 Speaker 1: I think everybody should do that for real. That's just 21 00:00:53,880 --> 00:00:56,480 Speaker 1: called working your eight hours. But companies expect you to 22 00:00:56,560 --> 00:00:59,400 Speaker 1: work twenty four hours a day, around the clock, seven 23 00:00:59,480 --> 00:01:01,959 Speaker 1: days a week, and I've never understood that, and that's 24 00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:08,920 Speaker 1: why I'm not a great employee. Here's the trend of 25 00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:13,240 Speaker 1: quiet quitting. But also that revealed that bosses are actually 26 00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:17,160 Speaker 1: doing something called quiet firing. Oh it's not a new 27 00:01:17,240 --> 00:01:19,160 Speaker 1: trend either. I guess this has been going on for 28 00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:22,800 Speaker 1: a while. It's basically passive aggressive tactics to make you 29 00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:25,560 Speaker 1: miserable until you quit your job. That's the new thing 30 00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:26,840 Speaker 1: that people are doing. So if your boss has all 31 00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:28,640 Speaker 1: of a sudden stopped giving you work to do, you 32 00:01:28,720 --> 00:01:34,960 Speaker 1: might be getting quiet fired. So quiet quick, what happened? Okay? Yeah, 33 00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:38,319 Speaker 1: My second job was I was a receptionist at super Cuts. 34 00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:40,880 Speaker 1: I felt like it was a pretty easy job, right, 35 00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:42,760 Speaker 1: You just kind of like put the tickets on the counter, 36 00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:45,160 Speaker 1: and you clean the brushes and you take people about you. 37 00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:47,240 Speaker 1: I don't know. Anyways, my boss, I feel like, just 38 00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:49,440 Speaker 1: didn't like me because she would just come up with 39 00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:51,720 Speaker 1: all these crazy things that I didn't do. And I'm like, okay, 40 00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:53,240 Speaker 1: I guess I don't know. It was on my phone, 41 00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:55,240 Speaker 1: I don't know, but I came in on a Sunday 42 00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:56,760 Speaker 1: morning when I was supposed to work all day and 43 00:01:56,880 --> 00:01:59,320 Speaker 1: the other receptionist, her sister was with her, which she 44 00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:01,120 Speaker 1: normally isn't, and I just didn't anythink anything of it 45 00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:02,800 Speaker 1: until we walked in and she's like, hey, can you 46 00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:04,760 Speaker 1: come back here real quick? And then I had my 47 00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:06,800 Speaker 1: Starbucks in my hand. I was like ready to work, 48 00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:09,720 Speaker 1: and then she fired me. And then I was like, oh, 49 00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:12,320 Speaker 1: like I was so confused. What I was like, Okay, well, 50 00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:15,200 Speaker 1: I guess I get a Sunday off. I was like, okay, 51 00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:17,600 Speaker 1: that was weird. Well at least she actually fired you 52 00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:19,639 Speaker 1: straight up to your face. Yeah, it was weird, though 53 00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:22,400 Speaker 1: she was starting to quiet fire had to firefire. Yes, 54 00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:25,200 Speaker 1: it's producer Brad. When I was sixteen, I found myself 55 00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:27,919 Speaker 1: in a leadership position in radio. I was the head 56 00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:30,840 Speaker 1: of public service announcements at the radio station. Yeah, a 57 00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:34,520 Speaker 1: big deal, a huge deal. But we had somebody who 58 00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:37,440 Speaker 1: worked for us who would edit the public service announcements, 59 00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:39,800 Speaker 1: and my boss came to me and said, hey, listen, 60 00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:43,200 Speaker 1: let's just start scheduling him less and then maybe just 61 00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:44,799 Speaker 1: kind of take him off the schedule, just kind of 62 00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:48,680 Speaker 1: like wean him out of the building. So that was 63 00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:51,720 Speaker 1: nineteen years ago and I feel weird about it still. 64 00:02:51,880 --> 00:03:01,320 Speaker 1: He was an old guy too, and apologize, but he 65 00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:05,560 Speaker 1: quietly passed. I read this article on quiet quitting over 66 00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:07,919 Speaker 1: the weekend and it was written by a psychologist who 67 00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:10,720 Speaker 1: said that quiet quitting is actually a terrible thing to do, 68 00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:13,079 Speaker 1: and quiet firing is a terrible thing to do because, yeah, 69 00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:16,239 Speaker 1: they said that it teaches people to not have any 70 00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:18,160 Speaker 1: sort of healthy conflicts. So if you want to quit 71 00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:20,400 Speaker 1: your job or you're not happy at your job, instead 72 00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:22,880 Speaker 1: of talking to the people, you quiet quit, so then 73 00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:24,519 Speaker 1: you just shut down. But it actually makes your life 74 00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:26,200 Speaker 1: miserable because you're not getting what you want. Now, you're 75 00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:28,240 Speaker 1: stuck in this job and you're not leaving, and you're 76 00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:30,680 Speaker 1: not doing enough at the job to advance because you've 77 00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:33,200 Speaker 1: given up on the job. So you're not really getting 78 00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:36,680 Speaker 1: anywhere but angry. And they say with bosses the same thing, 79 00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:39,160 Speaker 1: that you're just making your employees miserable because you're scared 80 00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:41,760 Speaker 1: to have the conversation of yo, hey, you're fired, which 81 00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:45,120 Speaker 1: is not a good way to fire people. Either get 82 00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:47,880 Speaker 1: out or let them come in on a Sunday and 83 00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:51,640 Speaker 1: then tell them thanks, can't you call me. I know 84 00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:56,080 Speaker 1: that made you drive in morning. You're paying me for today. 85 00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:59,840 Speaker 1: I'm just saying. Somebody asked people for real world examples 86 00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:02,920 Speaker 1: of quiet firing, where your bosses don't really fire you, 87 00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:04,480 Speaker 1: but they don't want you there, so they just don't 88 00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:06,520 Speaker 1: give you things to do, so they make your life miserable. 89 00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:08,680 Speaker 1: Things like this. If this is happening to you at 90 00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:11,560 Speaker 1: your job, you might be getting quiet fired. A person's 91 00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:15,880 Speaker 1: manager used used to slowly reduce the hours of people 92 00:04:15,920 --> 00:04:19,240 Speaker 1: he didn't like until they were eventually never scheduled. I 93 00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:22,480 Speaker 1: had that happened at a restaurant to a few people 94 00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:24,200 Speaker 1: I was around. They got quiet fired. They just take 95 00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:26,440 Speaker 1: them off the schedule and then then come in and 96 00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:28,800 Speaker 1: it was messed up. But it was also funny to 97 00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:31,080 Speaker 1: see them looking at the schedule for like fifteen minutes. 98 00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:34,000 Speaker 1: There's a bullets and board in the back of the 99 00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:35,520 Speaker 1: kitchen and they're just staring at it, and I'm like, 100 00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:42,400 Speaker 1: they'd have no idea that they've been fired. Another thing 101 00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:45,240 Speaker 1: that a boss did to quiet fire someone an assistance 102 00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:48,400 Speaker 1: desk got moved from an office to the corner of 103 00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:52,200 Speaker 1: the copyright in the corner and the office went to 104 00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:56,080 Speaker 1: an intern what that's the way somebody got quiet fired. 105 00:04:58,120 --> 00:05:00,840 Speaker 1: Another one says a manager kept at more and more 106 00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:03,840 Speaker 1: to a woman's workload until it was overwhelming, but nobody 107 00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:11,280 Speaker 1: else got additional work, just her. So if that's happening 108 00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:13,920 Speaker 1: to you, you know you're being quiet fired.
