because they’re being paid to to do their jobs. that’s what a job is. if you want to protest doing your job, then quit instead of draining taxpayer resources.

Silent quitting seems to be supported by the work reform subreddit

when it comes to essential services such as firefighting and law enforcement silent quitting is not acceptable for the public good, especially as well paid as these professionals are. no one dies if a teacher calls out sick.

Seems unfair. Why do teachers get more workers rights in that respect than “essential workers “. Seems to me like you are playing rules for thee but not for me.

I never said you were. I don’t see why teachers can silent quit but nurses cannot.

Honestly, I don’t believe most teachers and nurses would do the same kind of silent quitting the NYPD is notorious for. they seem to employ people of better morals who don’t put their paycheck above the public good.
