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?

    Everyone is only there for the money. No one would be there if they weren’t getting paid. It sounds like you’re walking around telling all your coworkers “I’m only here for money,” which very honestly sounds insufferable. When you say the “C suite” wants to talk to you about this, are you referring to your boss, or your boss’s boss? Unless you’re in a high level job at a large company, those people are definitely not in the “C suite.”
