Since bosses found a way to equate workers doing their jobs within the description with quitting altogether, let’s call their bluff and dial down our efforts even further.
Let it rot:
To actively embrace a deteriorating situation, allowing it to take its course, and doing nothing to turn it around.
Case in point: If you’re down by 30 points in the second half of the fourth quarter, why run up and down the court? You could play the best game of your life and you’ll lose anyway. Let it rot.
or you could go work somewhere you'll be happy
What a bunch of made up bullcr-p. Small people. Small minded. Small grievances. Grow up and get over yourselves.
We have to realize that 'let it rot' is not rooted in individual employee dissatisfaction, but rather in the 'MW culture', which has systematically praised appearance over performance, and has systemically destroyed 'Chevron Way' behaviors.
In the company's defense, most employees over 50 have been doing just this passive behavior for decades now. It was 'quiet quitting' before the phrase even existed. Chevron managers over 50 have been the perfect role models for this behavior, harvesting current benefits and perks while doing nothing for the long term benefit of Chevron. Perfect example is our 'energy transition', which is underfunded, mis-directed, and only serves to underscore charges of 'greenwashing' from the outside.
Keep drinking the human energy Kool aid. Your in for a huge fall when you get laid off
Let it rot!
Go ahead and do that, I prefer to keep my job
