    loyalty and respect to your team doesn’t mean sticking around in that position. It just means not screwing them by slacking off (when the work would fall on them) or snitching or scabbing etc

        “Work ethic” for most wage slaves, is just being a good subservient worker bee that does whatever the boss tells them. It’s a ridiculously vague term and your definition is not at all common sense. That’s why I explicitly specified “to your colleagues”.

            Yes, what I wrote does sound like “loyalty to one’s boss”, but not like “loyalty to your colleagues”. This is my point.

            My work ethic applies to how I approach my hobbies and past-time activities as well

            yes, this is your personal definition. Ask 10 people what “work ethic” means to them and you’ll likely get 11 different answers.
