Neither walking your talk or being silent. Just simply being able to walk your talk but choosing not to talk about it
Grandma was listening to young guapa talk about how he made 7 figures in 1 year, Grandpa said “NUT UP AND SHUT UP, NIGGA no one gives a dayum about that shit mothafucka”. Young Guapa proceeded to ask why and grandma continued with “Because we got trillions from our investment account but you don’t hear us talking about it because we stay humble my g, stay bussin and silent my nigga”.

This phenomenon describes how some people react to undesirable and uninspiring work situations. This phenomenon is mainly applicable to people working boring, mindless jobs, most of whom perform rote work -- e.g., data entry -- or are paid simply simply for their presence -- e.g., a booth attendant. Activities that constitute 'shutting down' and checking out' include: napping, reading, sending excessive/unnecessary text messages, and listening to one's iPod.
Elliott: I'm surprised Tom hasn't gotten more sleep today -- doesn't he have to work the graveyard shift tonight?
Mark: Yeah, but remember, he's a booth attendant in the middle of the night...he's just going to Show up, Shut down, Clock in and Check out.
