It's not even a "friends with benefits" situation. Your employer is not your friend. Unlike FWB relationships, the employer-employee relationship is entirely transactional.
Exactly. I wrote in the article: "If a company stops paying you, you'll stop showing up. If you stop showing up, they'll stop paying you. That's the core exchange. Everything else, the speeches, the slogans, the faux loyalty, the theater, is dressing on top of a fundamentally transactional relationship."
