My kids are a few of the best and brightest and I have friends that have much the same and frankly DEI and COVID sht has made what America work place was forty years ago unbearable. They KEEP ppl who only want to be slave holders and they abuse those with real work ethic and it happens to the older generation who are towing the line for higher ups who fawn and excuse worthless ungrateful lazy lustful idiots like themselves.
A friend of mine who owns a landscaping company says about a certain group of workers (you can use your imagination as to what group) that the ethos is this:
One guy will take 8 hours to dig a 20-foot ditch.
The next guy who works the job will take 8 hours to dig a 15-foot ditch.
A third guy will spend the 8 hours digging 10 feet of ditch.
And be recognized by the first two as the smartest one.
While he said this about a certain immigrant culture, I have observed the same mentality among Teamsters of all races, all ethnicities. I know because I was one. And I was the one who pissed all the others off, because I'd finish my route 3 hours earlier than the other guys. I had a knife pulled on me, a guy telling me to knock it off, slow down. I didn't, then they started giving me the worst routes. Whatever. I'm never gonna be that person who takes a nap on the route. You literally can't pay me to do that!

One is castigated by "co-workers" to not "work so hard" because: that'll raise THEIR bar higher.
They hate seeing people actually do their jobs well and EFFICIENTLY.
I, and workers like me? Are perceived as THREATS!!
