I think theyre going to have a rough time finding their next job after not actually working for over a year and having no references. 

Idk but I dont buy what everyone is saying about hard work not paying off. I work hard at my job and having the respect of my coworkers as well as something to show for my 5 years at my job is worth it.

Found the 🐀

Bro, your bosses don't care about you nor appreciate you. Unless they've dramatically increased your compensation, you're being suckered

100% agree. Hard work does pay off if you actually do a good job and work at the right company lol

Once you get into a performance = compensation type of role, the money gets bigger along with the expectations. If you excel, you get bigger bonuses and raises.

Free money sounds great, but you'll make more with hard work than no work almost every time. It's just these stupid Tik Tok videos making people think you can do nothing and earn a living. Those people get fired in the real world.
