A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.

Quiet quitting was doing what you were hired to do, and not taking on stuff beyond your role. I'm guessing that quiet vacationing means you take the breaks that are in your contract, or that you sleep in your free time.

I guess I am kind of a lazy entitled bastard. Wanting to tuck my kids in at bedtime and whatnot.

I figured it was working remotely and traveling wherever you want, working in the morning and vacationing in the evening.

Oooh right, that makes sense. My job has no issues with this actually. If you end up moving somewhere (outside of the Nordics, presumably) they need to be notified for tax and insurance reasons, but if you travel abroad and bring your work with you they genuinely don't care so long as you can get your job done. Heck it even happens quite often.
