they would put in the extra effort if they had the optimistic belief that putting in extra effort could be, might be, recognized and rewarded

when instead they have the pessimistic belief that putting in extra effort won't be recognized and rewarded they don't put in the extra effort

boomers come from a time when extra effort was often recognized and rewarded. when you could work your way up. when you could be in the same company your whole life if you wanted to without getting laid off. those times are gone

the boomers now in charge don't realize they're living in the past. and they think people not putting in extra effort is an attitude problem. when in reality the current work environment is so unlikely to reward the extra effort that people are smart and pessimistic and realistic enough to give up and not bother.

once upon a time you would work as hard as possible, would look for extra work, would compete to prove yourself. provide for your family. and they'd get massive productivity out of you. in return you would get a stable lifelong career with realistic opportunities for advancement.

they still want you to work that hard, even though you're now disposable and can be laid off anytime, the wife left you and your family is in shambles. even if your family is still together you're not going to make enough to afford a house or do anything more then barely getting by no matter how hard you work.

either return things to the way they were or just get used to reduce productivity as people do the rational thing and slack off. oh im sure the kneejerk reaction is to punish the employees harder, make sure they need to work harder just to afford a meal. but people don't work their asses off just to get by, they work their asses off to get ahead.

>or just get used to reduce productivity as people do the rational thing and slack off.
this is just basically what happens.
the old adage, "I pretend to work, they pretend to pay me". good managers just look the other way, occasionally reach out to emphasize when a particular task or deadline is *Actually* mission-critical, keep enough busywork queued up to make sure everyone can appear engaged, and fuck off with the rest of their time. The workers, in turn, don't blow up their boss's spot, and "perform" the dance of looking-busy whenever their boss's bosses take a passing glance at the operations. The supervisor is close enough to the action to know that this is hollow unproductive play-acting, but doesn't care as long as the performance is convincing. And it usually is, because the higher-ups don't even know what they're looking at enough to discern the difference so long as nobody is asleep on the clock or shitting on the floor.
This makes the supervisor look good, which buys the workers a slack-er leash, they return to self-directed fucking-around for approximately 36 hours of a given 40-hour workweek. Once or twice in a given payperiod, they'll be called upon to get one specific task done by End of Day, and if you don't drop THIS ONE BALL IN PARTICULAR, you can basically work there for 25 years if you want. They don't buy you gold-watches anymore, though, but the speed of limping-along is accepted as reasonably sufficient to keep the wheels moving indefinitely and nobody is more unhappy than strictly necessary. The American Way.

Basically the only thing that can fuck this up is a middle-management outside-hire, whose name is staked on "Cleaning Up Shop", Tightening Things Up. It never works, their changes fix nothing but disgruntle the old workers who never rock the boat as long as they've got their little setup, they revolt (usually quit) and the wheels fall off.

there was a time when employers were literally too scared to fire employees without good reason because employees would come back on their last official day and shoot them. Boomers were legitimately crazy and it worked for them. Even recently there was an 80 year old man who got fired from his factory job after working there for 30 years. He practically begged his boss to let him keep working for just another year because he was having financial problems. When his boss said no, he pulled out a gun and shot him several times. This happened in 2021.

In the past people were much more lazy at work than they are now. One of the initial struggles during industrialization was to get workers to turn up on time and to turn up sober. Hell, even in the 1950s it was common for workers to turn up plastered and to get drunk at lunch time. On construction sites little used to get done because the workers would disappear into the smoko shed at the slightest sight of rain and play cards all day. That's completely unheard of now.
