my only motivation to be there is to earn money and my 401k. So many of my coworkers and management feel offended by this statement.

I’m union. Union lawyer thinks this is a management strategy to try to manipulate me.

Cue BS answer for any c-suite that tries making me feel insecure over this:

well, I’m a terrible liar, that’s why I’m asking you :D

the unfriendly party might be easy: I’m always friendly and direct because I want to work. maybe that?

    my contract and my professional goals worksheet tells me what I have to do to achieve 100% success.

    being nice to you is not in either of those documents.

    If I’m kind to you, it’s because I want to be, not because I have to be.

      as much as I’d love to use this line, this would put a huge mark on my back, at least where I work at.

      surprising how thin skinned some people are.

      updating my cv as of now…
