Just checking. So often you hear deadbeat "managers" and exec types or owners bemoaning the lack of focus in their indentured slaves who are basically so poor they are justified in not paying attention...

Yeah, I think that any employee who can get away with not focusing should. It's a symptom of bad management. If a given job is such that an employee can complete all their tasks in 20h of work, they should do that and it's on a manager to know that and give them more tasks. "quiet quitting" is a bullshit nothing term.
