It appears that Bungie is undergoing a series of layoffs this week, in addition to those that occurred in the last few weeks. (twitter.com)

No. One's colleagues and peers deserve respect and loyalty (so long as they reciprocate). But not the bosses.

Nope. I love working with my team but if a better offer or a more exciting project came along I'm outta here. I still am constantly applying to jobs around the sector.

loyalty and respect to your team doesn't mean sticking around in that position. It just means not screwing them by slacking off (when the work would fall on them) or snitching or scabbing etc

[–] aniki@lemm.ee 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

That's just work ethic, not loyalty.

"Work ethic" for most wage slaves, is just being a good subservient worker bee that does whatever the boss tells them. It's a ridiculously vague term and your definition is not at all common sense. That's why I explicitly specified "to your colleagues".

That sounds more like "loyalty" to me.

My work ethic applies to how I approach my hobbies and past-time activities as well -- has nothing to do with how I feel about my employer or the work I am doing at the moment.

Yes, what I wrote does sound like "loyalty to one's boss", but not like "loyalty to your colleagues". This is my point.

My work ethic applies to how I approach my hobbies and past-time activities as well

yes, this is your personal definition. Ask 10 people what "work ethic" means to them and you'll likely get 11 different answers.
