I mean no disrespect to anyone using all those terms, but you want to scare employers who are out to take advantage of you. . . Almost all of them. . . Quit cold, hard and unexpected, and unemotionally every time. Anything unprofessional out of them: Let's keep this professional it's just business. I just feel we use these sentimented terms to describe them we give them negotiating leverage against any employee in negotiations with them. Quiet quitting?

I feel trapped. I can't leave now.
