A short YouTube video by Donald Burns that introduces the concept of "quiet quitting" in the restaurant industry — employees stopping attendance without notice — and claims it is a costly, widespread problem affecting restaurants. The speaker suggests the cause is not simple dislike of the job but something else to be explained.
There is a silent epidemic that is plaguing the restaurant industry. The quiet quitting epidemic, as it's been known to be called, is a kind of a phenomenon where employees, they just simply stop showing up to work without notice. And it's costing restaurants big time. Maybe it's costing you as well. It's not because they don't like their job or the restaurant. It's something else entirely.
If your restaurant only works because you work 80 hours a week, it doesn't work.
