The Xlog project has been completed. The article questions the need for gratitude when people fulfill their responsibilities, such as teachers grading assignments, doctors providing appropriate care, and leaders offering guidance. It suggests that society's expectations for fulfilling duties have increased while tolerance for those who do not fulfill them has also risen. The article raises concerns about the sincerity and value of gratitude when it is expected for simply doing one's job.

I don't know when it started
The trend of "praising" and "gratitude" in the group is growing
- Some are deeply moved by teachers who carefully correct homework
- Some see doctors who do not overtreat at the end of life as reborn
- Some are grateful for the guidance of leaders in daily life
Teachers are role models who impart knowledge and education
Doctors at least do no harm with compassion
Leaders mentor and enhance service capabilities and awareness
- These are all part of the job, why should we be grateful?
On the surface
- Our expectations for various professions to fulfill their duties are constantly increasing
In reality
- Our tolerance for those who do not fulfill their duties is forced to increase repeatedly
Completing one's duties will be "praised" and commended
- Perhaps this indicates that the weight of this "duty" is a bit heavy
- Perhaps it indicates that we have tacitly accepted not fulfilling our duties
If others need to be grateful for doing their job for us
- Then isn't gratitude too cheap and hypocritical?
