Ex-poker superstar Annie Duke, formerly known as “The Duchess of Poker,” believes that sometimes being a quitter is not as bad as people claim. In an interview with Reuters, Duke opposed the idea of “never giving up,” saying that sometimes it is best to cut your losses.
Duke said that many people tend to stigmatize quitting as a bad thing when in reality, it is often the better choice. She said that the “quiet quitting” approach where employees slowly disengage from their work is a bad trend and advised people to learn when to walk away.
