My 14 year old entering high school. Told me one day that he doesn't want to be like myself. He doesn't want to work for 45 years making other people astounding amounts of revenue and getting paid barely enough to drive back to work another day. "Work ethic" made my employers a comfortable living. It did not make ME a comfortable living. He refuses to fall for the same con job. Young man already knows something it took myself until 50 years to accept.
What's the alternative? Thats the question.
@@b.michaelbrown1117 I believe a German man who looks an awful lot like Santa Claus wrote a bunch about a better system.
Start a business
The actual system of employment isn't technically changing. Your son has just decided to generate his own wealth by becoming an entrepreneur and making his own money. Whoever he hires to "work for him" will be in the "old system" and working for him and they'll be in the system of employment that he resents and doesn't want to be a part of anymore. Each generation has to decide how far they want to go.
Seems like someone gave Ken feedback on his previously condescending tone 😂 Glad to see he is trying to focus on clarity of the message moving forward.
The low productivity reflects the non living wages.
Gen Z thinks the job is supposed to be an extension of school and home. It’s not.
9 min i will never get back in my life. How can you literally talk for so long and have nothing to add, nothing to say, nothing to conclude. You just talked in circles for 9min. This is why genZ can see though people like this. They wanna seem like they are siding or meeting in the middle but its all a façade
I try to have empathy for my gen z colleagues. At the same time, sometimes putting more expectations on them pushes them to grow and make less excuses for failure.
I’m an elder millennial. I’ll be 40 next month. My productivity is high because I do everything myself. I don’t trust my coworkers, which are 10 years younger than me, to do as good a job as quickly as me.
In the next few years, you'll start to see Gen Alpha entering the workforce. The oldest of these is around 14 right now, so that definitely puts a new spin on things.
Young people need to drop their overblown sense of entitlement, and they really need to develop solid work ethic. The world owes them nothing, just like it did not owe anything to their parents and grandparents, who got ahead through hard work and positive attitudes. The attitudes I see in young people today only work against them and turn off older folks like me, who had to struggle and work in order to get to where we are. I'm in my mid 50's and work with a bunch of 20 and 30 somethings who apparently go through life with their craniums firmly lodged in their rectums, and who for some reason expect everything to be given to them on a silver platter without having to do any work or suffer any inconvenience.
Also the job opportunities, In the 90’s there were more people than jobs. You needed experience just to get an interview.
Now, There are more jobs than people. If a millennial doesn’t want a stroke at a job. They can move on.
Gen Z 😊
The oldest and the youngest in the workforce are the laziest, that's for sure.
Oldest/youngest generations*
From what I've seen in the office, the youngsters get offended at the idea of having to work and are more worried about work/life balance. If they're at work, they think they should be allowed to leave when the spirit moves them. If you accept a job Monday through Friday 8-5, expect to have to work Monday through Friday 8-5. I don't know where you're getting your information Ken. The younger generation has been mollycoddled and haven't been taught to work. Kids don't even have to mow the lawn anymore.
I'm curious what you do, honestly. I find this to be the case in low paying jobs, which creates an obvious implication of the candidates who take the jobs. The better paid a position is, the better quality candidates you will find in any walk of life.
I myself have an astounding work ethic, but I'll tell you now, I do not put in nearly as much effort if I am being underpaid, which I was in my supervisory positon, thus why I stepped down from it. Work ethich is begotten by reward analysis, not some innate property.
Boomers think they were uberminsch of workers, but the generations before them weren't nearly as charitable in interpreting that. Boomers had much more simplistic systems to operate within and realistic economic growth was far more feasible in their prime. Now, the bottom rungs of economic evolution as all but removed and economic disinsentives, which they facilitated, beget a shittier work ethich among a more inexperienced work force.
I cannot imagine putting in effort into a job that doesn't value me, doesn't pay me enough to live, and essentially will use me to the fullest extent that the law will permit to generate profits that I will never benefit from.
We aren't as privy to exploitation with false promises of benefits.
OK Boomer!
