Who isn't racing out the door at 5pm? I trade labor for wages, I'm not sticking around for unpaid overtime just to make some investor who's never worked a day in his life even richer.

Brother, life is too short not to leave when you want.

"Sorry we don't live our lives for the opportunity to destroy ourselves for senpai company owner like you."

My supervisor doesn't know how to maintain what I build, despite me attempting to show her. At this point, we openly pity each other, her because I have no desire to do more than what my job entails, take the paycheck, and leave to go live my life, and I because she proudly has no life to go home to because she spends 12 hours a day plus here acting like Jesus on the cross for the greedy, indifferent owner.

You sure it isn't the finance and management guys leaving at 4pm and earlier while developers are expected to work past hours and even at home?

Don't forget Sales people too. At my company they frequently schedule fun activities right in the middle of the day.

What? No! I leave at 6pm. (But start at 2)

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.

"Quiet quitting" 😂

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

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.

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