Amazon's cloud boss on Thursday told employees who are unhappy with the company's new five-day in-office mandate they can leave for other companies.

Never quit in these situations, or they win.

Do the absolute fucking minimum you can, or even less so you piss off management, until they have to fire you, which they can’t outright as after a certain number of years they have to give warnings and trainings first.

That only works in places with actual worker protection and labor laws, which disqualifies pretty much all of the USA.

I mean, says who? There’s currently only one state in the union that requires cause before you can fire someone. The real issue with firing people is that without a documented cause, that person can collect state unemployment, and the number of people who go on state unemployment from a single company has a financial impact on that company.

There are two ways to quit: How management wants you to or because you’re forming a union.

There are many at-will states that can fire you on demand (if done carefully) and there’s nothing you can do about it.
