It's always been a thing. It's just work-life. Throughout history, plenty of people have disengaged, hate there boss, are complete slackers, etc. None of it is new except the millennialistic labeling of it.

Maybe so but those people still worked hard and tried to go the extra mile, Now we are not only disengaged but are doing the bare minimum.
I've been in that position. I'd get my work done then just **** around until my next assignment came in because I wasn't going to give the company extra effort if they couldn't give the employees extra effort.,
I agree with this 100%. Sure, it's happened before. But it just seems much more prevalent now.
I witnessed/experienced quiet quitting in the restaurant biz quite a bit and that was 15-20 years ago. People would find a gig at some other restaurant and just not show up to the current one.
Disengagement wise there's a bunch of ways to do things and if someone has their own way and it's done, there's no reason to be at the office if there's no other work to do.
I don't care what they say about us anyway
I don't care about that

That's not quiet quitting, at least not how I think of it. That's just quitting/no-showing without telling your employer. Quiet Quitting refers to still keeping your job, but doing the bare minimum to keep it.

Well, you could be posting in Linked In like Tom Luce. (I don't know Tom, I just saw this posted elsewhere).
QFT! Have a weekly Thursday 9 am meeting that is solely for a peer to get her nose involved in what the rest of us have going on. Projects she isn't in charge of or involved in, but she needs to know what's going on. Waste of time every week.
I mean it's probably quiet inside the casket. Some days that would be nice.
It was my wife’s cousins birthday yesterday. A different cousin wished him happy birthday on Facebook. The different cousins funeral was a week ago.
Well for ***** sake. Half the reason why I'd work in the office is for my corpse to be found in a reasonable amount of time....
I find it somewhat odd that Principal wants the buildings full of employees but then shifts thousands of jobs overseas in the past couple of years.
“That poor woman went four days without being discovered”
I’m guessing after she died it probably didn’t matter to her how long it took to find her body.
