This is my last week at my job! I quiet quit three months ago. Saved up, went through coding boot camp, taking online course on building my own remote business based on my existing skill sets. Signing up to do temp work while continuing to transition into a new career. Quiet quitting helps to plan your endgame.

I’m quitting my job on 01/31/2023, STARTING MY CAREER BREAK & step away from nursing and get back to myself!

When not on hourly wage, but on full time salaried job, the company expects you to often work evenings, even weekends - a deadline, an urgent project, all sorts of reasons - which is essentially wage theft. Working extra hours but not getting paid. Labor dept. should investigate, clearly it's wage theft.

Learned about you from watching that CNN clip so came here to cheer you on... just wanted to say gogogadget & good luck. I'm what would be considered a boomer age and wanted to add that yep for sure we've been doing this for years and ignore the folks that say it's new or wrong. They're just not being honest, with themselves or others both, and you're just speaking about it upfront. We just called it "CYA" "Looking out for yourself" "Scheming a plan" "Chapter next here I come" Anywho. Keep being honest and very best of wishes out your way. :)

Paige - I love your channel. Thank you. I am 25, and I quit working for NOAA as a federal employee. I have a very similar background to you - I studied molecular biology and became a data scientist which landed me a federal job at 25. 60k a year, full benefits, healthcare, but I wasn’t happy because I never had time for myself anymore and I hated the government and it wasn’t the right fit for me so I quiet quit as well. I now produce television shows, and I make good money doing that sort of work! I appreciate you a lot for being open and you’ve gained a new subscriber! Keep up the good work :)

QUIET QUITTING should really be called GO SLOW, which is what it has been called for decades (maybe centuries). Most workers go slow: accomplishing just enough to keep the job but not really pushing too hard. Remember your boss and coworkers aren't stupid, they are going to see what you're doing and call you out on it and you'll probably be fired anyway.

Another great video, Paige! These are excellent tips. I didn't quiet quit...I just quit! 😂Let me explain: Whenever I was fed up with that job (which happened A LOT), I calculated what my projected expenses would be if I were to quit in "such and such" month. The numbers never worked, so I stayed. But when I worked out the numbers in July 2021, they worked! I put my resignation in that same day. I guess I was just planning my escape for 2 years, but only left when it made sense!

I was part of the "Great resignation" I quit Dec of last year, more savings would have been great but I'm still getting by as self employed. Thanks for sharing your experience. More people need to know their worth!

I can't believe you wanted to stay at your DC job until the end of 2021! I remember your vlogs from before July 2021 and I think you got out at the right time! So glad to see you much happier now😇

I've been quiet quitting since last year. It took a while for employer to either catch on, or care. But I'm done on October 14th of this year. Nice video, and saw the piece on CNN.

What a great video l learned a lot from it

I saw you on smerconish You did very well. Stick it to old controlling ass people. They are judgemental. People these are jobs not your whole life. Old gesers are mad because younger people have found a way to make their own choices. Life your best life.

I love you, Paige! Really. My wife says it's okay, she loves you too.

Saw your interview on CNN and it was exactly what I needed to see. Thanks.

I'm 19 working a hectic 9-5 at an airline/handling company.....I can't keep up anymore I have no time for myself and I have to be doing everything while the boss and her daughter just sits around bragging and getting rich......I really want to quit but my parents keeps pressuring me to stay......I'm tired mentally and physically and I just don't know what to do.

I saw your story on action news today and I subscribe to your channel

Love the advice!! 🙌

Awesome videos Paige!!! I loved the ones I watched and can’t wait to watch the rest. You’re amazing and I’m so proud of you🥰🥰 can I quiet quit at 62?😂😂😂

Staff should give their Supervisor some feedback as they exit, and let them know why they quit. It may help them with their future employees so they can retain talent. Thanks for sharing.

Very pretty!

All while those who strive a little more will get a higher bonus rate, higher pay increases and promotions. Yes, continue with your #quietquitting while wondering why you didn’t get that promotion or important seat at the table. And when the dreadful decision to right-size the company comes along, you’ll be amongst the first to go. Good luck with that!! 🤣

Paige, how do your parents feel about this?

I always desire those people who has the courage or maybe confidence to make a bargain with their boss ,quit the job , asking for a raise .(btw I am chinese

Wonderful!

The “Office Space” movie is a precursor to this whole phenomena…

This just seems like a lot of blather about moving from one job to another. Introducing the term "quiet quitting" doesn't add anything.

I guess the cat is out of the bag cos older and smarter workers have been doing it for ages. It is never about working longer hours or slogging harder. It is all about getting the most out of life with the limited time and resources one has.

The idea here is with HR departments now in large corporations and the opportunity to have documentation given to you over time it is best that you are able to milk it for as long as you can low for as long as you can and actually quit at the very last minute before you’re gonna get fired in fact you should anticipate the day that you’re going to get fired when they call you and and they’re going to serve those termination papers, that’s when you turn in your resignation , you can loaf on their dime as long as you can, work the system to the very last minute that’s how that’s done and that’s what she advocates.

I wanna work for PAIGE WEST hire me

Watch this whole video because she is cute 📹📹😊😊😊

I know what you're really talking about is planning a transition and not sacrificing yourself for a job you want to leave in the future. However, the internet is forever and when you need a job in the future, you'll always be seen like another entitled millennial wanting to get paid to do nothing. Promoting yourself like this is very unwise. Call it something other than "quiet quitting".

Imagine these infantile clowns in a MARRIAGE.

As a employer's point of view, this is a selfish act. If you don't like your job, just quit. Let someone else has yours. Image that your boss plans a "quite firing" you while finding a cheaper and smarter replacement. She is doing "quite earning" her living from KZfaq.

This is the worst advice from the least experienced person currently available on KZfaq. Sweet.
