Going "above and beyond" perpetuates the expectation of free labor by normalizing working beyond our agreed-upon hours and compensation. This creates a culture where working overtime and taking on extra responsibilities are seen as signs of dedication and loyalty, instead of exploitation. Don't fall for this trap, set boundaries and demand fair compensation for your hard work. #LaborReform
