how to tell you’re living in a dystopia: working your contracted hours and meeting your job description is considered “quitting”

The brainwashing is ongoing, insidious and persistent. In my twenty three years of work in Canada ONE boss did not expect free overtime. Everyone else, be it private small company or a big corporation, expected it all year long and expressed outrage when it was not happening - even when there was NO NEED for it. I was explicitly asked “why your team leaves at 4”, when the boss knew very well that the volume of work at the time was very low.

It was not happening when I worked in contract; I worked an hour more, billed you for one hour more 🤷🏼 😁

Stealing people’s time and inflicting the stress on employees is an integral part of North American so-called “work ethics”. 😡
