"After the layoffs at Google, I started working at Amazon 1.5 years ago. My goal was to get paid without doing much work and eventually get fired due to a performance review..."

"I work about 8 hours a week, mostly in meetings. To be honest, I haven't contributed to any significant goals at Amazon. I’ve only resolved 7 support tickets and presented a dashboard that I created in 3 days using ChatGPT as if it took me 3 months."

"Currently, in my job, I'm mainly occupied with saying no to other teams' requests to integrate with our team and making them do more than 95% of the integration work. My total annual earnings are around $370,000, and I live in a region with a moderate cost of living. So far, I haven't received any warning about being laid off. How much longer can I keep this up?"
