I Don't Care

どうでもいい

After confusion comes detachment: a corporate survivor masters the bare minimum and discovers that nobody notices until they name him employee of the year.混乱の次に来るのは無関心。必要最低限を極めた会社員は、誰にも気づかれないまま、なぜか年間最優秀社員に選ばれる。

Behind the Track楽曲の背景

带薪摸鱼 is Chinese internet slang for slacking off while still getting paid. In I Don't Care, it becomes an office survival philosophy.

The composite narrator attends the retreat, stays muted through the meeting, blocks the calendar, and perfects the bare minimum. Three months pass. The work looks the same. Nobody notices.

Then they give him Employee of the Year.

This is the release's second 不: confusion has become apathy, and the joke is that the company can measure everything except whether anybody still cares.

带薪摸鱼は、給料をもらいながら勤務中にうまく手を抜く、という意味の中国のネットスラング。I Don't Care(どうでもいい)では、それが会社を生き延びるための哲学になる。

複数の働く人の経験を重ねた語り手は、強制参加のチームビルディングに顔を出し、会議ではミュートのまま、カレンダーを予定で埋め、必要最低限を完璧にこなす。3か月が過ぎても、仕事の見た目は同じ。誰も気づかない。

そして、年間最優秀社員に選ばれる。

4つの「不」の二つ目。混乱は無関心に変わった。何もかも測る会社が、そこで働く人にまだ気持ちが残っているかだけは測れない。

Lyrics歌詞

Nine to five? Nah I do ten to four
Reply-all with a thumbs up, nothing more
Boss wants the deck by Friday — cool, I guess
Auto-save at version one, couldn't care less
Mandatory fun day, team-building retreat
I signed up, showed up, sat in the back seat
带薪摸鱼 — yeah I'm stealing time like a pro
Getting paid to be present with nowhere to go

They said "take ownership," I said "of what?"
Performance review? I rated myself "good enough"
管他的, 管她的, 管你们所有的
我不管 — and my direct deposit still hits

我不管 (I don't care)
真的不管 (Really don't care)
我不管 — doing the bare minimum with flair
我不管 (I don't care)
你说什么都不管 (Don't care what you say)
Quiet quitting with a lanyard and a thousand-yard stare

Outlook calendar? Blocked it all as "busy"
Three-hour meeting — I was on mute playing Dizzy
你们开会吧, I'll be right here
Screen on, cam off, soul in a different hemisphere
"Circle back"? Nah, I'm going straight home
Laptop closed at five oh one, I'm in the zone
及格就好 — sixty percent is a pass
Why give a hundred when nobody asked?

You want to know my secret?
I stopped trying... and nobody noticed
Three months... 三个月了
Same results
(Huh... interesting)

我不管 (I don't care)
真的不管 (Really don't care)
我不管 — bare minimum, maximum chair
我不管 (I don't care)
你说什么都不管 (Don't care what you say)
Quiet quitting... and they gave me employee of the year
