This company laid off a bunch of people, and the remaining employees are not thrilled about the downsizing decision.
No employee wants to be part of a company that's a sinking ship. If the business you're in starts downsizing and letting people go, it can create a ripple effect. The remaining employees will be walking on eggshells around their bosses, not knowing if they'll be the next to go. And with their coworkers leaving a gap in production, some people are sure to be burdened with additional work. It's a vicious cycle that can lead to burnout and job dissatisfaction, but many bosses don't care about that at all, as long as they're raking in money.
This dude, Jim, actually took the opposite approach. Instead of walking on eggshells around his bosses after a round of layoffs, Jim decided to just stop doing anything extra at his job. He took on a full "that's not my job" attitude that is so refreshing to hear about. In a world where bosses rule, employees taking power over their job feels so righteous.
