Never let them hear you

Years ago I tried an experiment at work. Typical workplace exploitation, promoted fear so you were afraid of losing your job. One day I decided to try and turn the tables. I was on the phone in the office with my spouse. I loudly stated for all in the office to hear…”what? Your aunt passed away and is leaving us how much? Close to 2 million? We’ll, after that, the tables turned and as I was a decent employee, I was no longer treated like I NEEDED the job. Worked like a charm.
