i mean, this mostly applies to american mindset. "work hard" is a function of progress; in the absence of progress, it stops making sense. and people who only knew how to work hard their entire life suddenly see that way of life ending.
there's a lot of americans who think that way. "work hard and you can make it". nah
a lot of people are realising that hard work != success. A lot of people are quiet quitting and other shit.
Quiet quitting fell out of favor when businesses simply started laying people off. Wild how that works.
i wish my personality let me do that. i'm kinda loud. i wrote a (bad) song about that stupid boss and played it at open mic night.
Bizarre lack of reflection
