Re @bbcsml I think asylum seekers and refugees must not be called migrants.

@Radical_EgoCom Quiet Quitting (not working unpaid hours) is Setting Limits, good in any relationship. Rested employees tend to be more productive in allotted hours, but people miss that.

Why so many negative articles? Crabs in a bucket, people pulling everyone else down to their level. People don't want to feel stupid or lazy, or be noticed looking different, so they write about it. Those that think they benefit from unpaid overtime also encourage writing about it, using the derogatory tag quiet quitting. (No, it's not entitlements, it's benefits.)

However, "quiet quitting" is now a thing because more and more people understand the trade offs, and only want to work for hours paid and then actually enjoy having a life. (I mean, think about it: If you're paid $x for 40 hours, but you work 80 hours, aren't you really working two jobs at $x/2? Google employees, I'm looking at you.)

@SkyNews I am a migrant, they are asylum seekers.
You are part of the problem, never part of the solution.

#WritingWonders 3.19 — Who or what does your MC hate the most?

#wordChoiceMatters: Since my perception and her perception differ, I shall let her answer:

I hate the woman who has all the power in the world, who sent my parents on a mission from which they never returned, whose blood money she wielded to fashion me into a tool sharper than any—a life from which I ran away.

RT @vivamjm: @LBC @NickFerrariLBC @Helen_Whately why does the media allow this "illegal" migrants narrative to persist? If they were "illegal" in crossing to UK they could be immediately *legally* removed.
They're asylum seekers; perhaps later proven to be illegal migrants,
but until due process is concluded none are "illegal"

RT @ukhomeoffice: The Home Secretary listened carefully to the testimony.

She thanked her for sharing her story.

The Home Secretary also expressed her sympathy and set out why it is important to tackle illegal migration.
