Marketing professional was told he 'lacked passion' for not responding to work messages at 10 pm. He went straight to LinkedIn
"When u/misnit received his annual review, he learned that his boss needed him to be more "passionate" about work even after 10 pm, despite not being given a raise in 3 years. Expressing his disappointment, the employee's post on December 4 reflects the toxic work culture amidst uncontrollable inflation, and how he didn't stand for that behavior. An employee is confronting his boss."
"When he brought it up to his boss, he was informed that since he failed to respond to messages post-work, like other team members who were more available, he had received the said remark. 'I work in marketing. For a company that sells industrial cleaning supplies. I make $19/hr. What passion am I supposed to have for mop buckets at 10 pm on a Tuesday when I'm trying to watch a show with my gf?'"
An employee received an annual performance review stating he needed to be more 'passionate' about work after 10 pm despite no raise in three years. His manager said the remark stemmed from failure to respond to messages after work while other team members were more available. The employee earns $19 per hour in marketing for an industrial cleaning supplies company and questioned being passionate about mop buckets late on a Tuesday. The employee plans to quit and already has two interviews scheduled. A 2024 study found working outside regular hours reduces the ability to mentally detach, creating a toxic environment.
