It seems many Malaysians have had enough of workplace politics and unfair treatment at the office.
A Threads post recently went viral after the OP questioned why some companies keep employees who do nothing but show up every day, while the hardworking and skilled ones end up facing unnecessary trouble until they eventually resign.
The OP wrote that companies often keep staff who cannot do their jobs properly but still turn up daily, allow them to burden other employees, and treat them like valuable assets while pushing the capable ones to quit.
Netizens share their thoughts
The post quickly gained attention as many Malaysians said they had experienced the same situation at work.
One user commented, ‘Exactly! Those who are lazy and do nothing always end up looking good in front of the bosses.’
Another shared their own story, saying, ‘My ex-company was like this too. In the end, I resigned because of burnout. Now, Alhamdulillah, I am happy with my new company.’
One netizen expressed frustration, adding, ‘This is so true. Those who finish tasks on time and even take on extra work end up being sabotaged, while the ones who do nothing get praised. It is so unfair.’
Whatever the reason, the frustration was clear, Malaysians want workplaces that value real contribution, not just empty appearances.
