I haven’t the slightest clue why people are mass downvoting your real experience here.
Because although the obsequious attitude he’s advocating for might be individually advantageous, it’s damaging to society (i.e. workers’ power, collectively) and sure as fuck shouldn’t be encouraged!
No, that’s ridiculous. It’s not damaging to anyone. It’s the reality of the serious career world, and if you want a good career in reality (vs a worker’s revolution or whatever in your fantasy) it would be wise to listen.
References are a real thing. Employment history is a real thing. These are checked by HR and hiring managers for serious career jobs, when an applicant is being considered. I have received direct confirmation of this from 2 jobs where I was hired, from my references and former employers who told me that the new employer called them to ask about me.
Original commenter who has been downvoted to hell here. I’vs spent half my life as a front-line worker and half my life in management, and in management I fight like hell for my people in the face of the greedy corporate bullshit we’re handed down from on high.
That said, if you’re going to be on my healthcare staff, I and all your colleagues need to be able to trust you. If you’ve demonstrated a pattern of quitting without notice, to me that demonstrates a lack of planning and/or frustration tolerance, and that makes me hesitant to trust you.
I get lots of people aren’t working in jobs that aren’t as high stakes as healthcare though

That makes sense, although it would have been easier to understand (for me, at the very least) if someone commented that right away after downvoting
