What the fuck is radical rest? Is this from the same corpo double speak school as quiet quitting? Imagine just doing your job and chilling on your free time. Absolutely radical.
I did a quick Google since this article is click bait: it's resting before you burnout to avoid it.
I imagine the article would also call out someone for avoiding excessive sugar before they are diabetic, based on the title, then the article explains that it makes sense actually, which is what they did.
I looked it up too, but the title put me off the article.
The whole thing is boomer and genx double speak for "genz knows we fucked them over and they're not doing what we need them to do for our cushy retirements to work out."
As a member of Gen X I'm over here watching Gen Z say "Oh that's the game? Then we're not playing" and cheering them on
Same here. The system is rigged against them and I am happy to watch them stand up against it.
No free labor for corporations. Fight for a living wage. And you should have a healthy work/life balance.
I'm an genX with 2 adult kids, waiting for my parents to die so we can alter our house so our children will have a decent place to live.
We got fucked by the morgage-dealer and in a few years our morgage is no more valid and we have to get a new one. I doubt this will work out.
As opposed to "Hussle culture" or busting your butt thinking it is actually going to get you anything worth having.
Radical Rest might be Fortune speak for vacation time…
They don’t like that European idea of vacation time
"OH NO THE LABOR CHATTEL ARE--" [checks clipboard] "RESERVING LESS THAN HALF OF THEIR WAKING HOURS FOR THEMSELVES INSTEAD OF INFLATING OUR BANK ACCOUNTS!! PANIK!!!1!11"
