In this short monologue, Shanli Liu, CPA, CTP, denounces the "quiet quitting" movement, arguing that it is a misguided approach that encourages employees to merely clock in and out without giving their best. Liu contends that a person's character is reflected by their behavior, especially in the workplace, and that labeling work conduct as separate from one's identity is absurd. He emphasizes that there is no evidence of internal thoughts or feelings—only observable actions—so acting lazily or poorly at work defines who a person is.

Here's what I think about quiet quitting. I actually think this movement is quite stupid because people are saying, don't give it your all, don't give it your best, just go in there, clock in, clock out, go do something else with the rest of your life. We spend so much time at work. To say that your behavior in the workplace is not a reflection of who you are outside the workplace, in my opinion, is absurd because who we are is dictated by our behavior, not our thoughts, not our feelings about who we are, but by our behavior. There's no evidence that you have certain thoughts or feelings about yourself. There's only the evidence of your behavior. And so who we are is actually a collection of our behaviors. And So if you act like an asshole at work or you act like a lazy person at work, then that is who you are.
