"Breaking news old people think young people are lazy pieces of shit"
Fr. Also hi railranner!
@@ajaytransitproductions hello 👋
Problem is most are . But some do work hard but they do moan about everything
I'm 32 and I think the younger generation are definitely a lot more lazy. That's just my personal opinion tho. Many I've worked with in jobs have had a lack of motivation, just sit on their phones and expect to be paid.
Because most of them are.
Interesting that they only surveyed managers and not the actual employees.
Who cares about employees they will tell you they identify as a hard worker
It doesn't matter, we know Gen Z are lazy and very sensitive
@@carrasco2011scLazy, or because we don't want to be corporate slaves like the older folks were , I'm sick of y'all calling us lazy, I've got two jobs and can barely keep my head above water. Ain't nobody wasting time on stupid tik tok either.
@@carrasco2011scthat's what Boomers also said about the Millenials now they're hardworking
Because they aren't 20 year olds anymore
Who cares about mangers and bosses they always tell you to work harder
It’s hard to take advantage of gen z workers
That's the original title it's feels like...🙄
Useless generation
@@rajnish8918 why’s that gen z is the only generation that’s realized that they won’t be able to retire cause the economy is on the brink of collapsing and they don’t want to work for shitty pay for long hours when cost of living is so high minimum wage is a joke. Most gen z I know want to start their own business and work for themselves instead of work like a slave for someone else where the outcome of the job is not in their favor.
Yea... people can't use you if you are useless.
Bruh this is just regular generation gap bs. Every generation is mad at the passing generation in some way.
You can find this same story reported on fox just 10 years ago. Just replace "Gen Z," with "millenial"
They get worse every generation
How dare gen z ask to be treated with respect and be able to feed themselves.
Cap
Lol yeah they’re upset we want to be paid what we’re worth and won’t work extra for no pay 😂
😆😆😆😆 thats why they are going into remote work@@imanigordon6803
You gotta earn respect chump
Guys, you core Gen-Z'ers don't understand one thing. No matter how pissed you are at the employers, no matter how much you rebel against it, no matter how much you hate work. You either gonna end jobless for the rest of your life spiraling into depression and early death and probably drugs to make up for your miserable life, or you will be the bitch of your employer but still somehow earn money, live your life, able to buy what you want, and maybe have fun now and then. Choose one... complaining will bring you nowhere, i hate work too, i hate employers too, but sometimes its better to be a bitch to someone and still make something out of your life. If too many people think like you guys this gonna end like this : They will employ foreign people who are not as bratty as American/European middle class people, and earn even less than you would. They will work better than you, they will have more fun, and they will be thankful to the employer, meanwhile you thought you could gain anything with your rebel phase, but in reality you made the problem worse and completely ruined the situation for your generation, till the point where they don't even want you guys because those foreigners they recruited from other countries do the job flawless and don't complain, so theres no need to get the old rebelious people for their company who rebelled the last 15 years or so and suddenly changed their behavior because everyones jobless, got older and learns how important it is to have a job or just got wiser or the movement dissapeared.
yes, let's call them difficult and not pay them a liveable wage. that will encourage them to work for you.
😂😂😂 BUT they are lazy and difficult, they are always on their phone and not putting any effort on their jobs.
@@carrasco2011sc i hope this is sarcasm.
@thispersonrighthere9024 no it's not. I work with a few and man, they want a raise when they are so useless and complain how "hard" they work. 🤣😂😂 They are a joke.
@thispersonrighthere9024 You are probably one of them, that is why. How can bosses pay more when you are useless, they think they deserve everything, they don't know how to earn their money.
@@thispersonrighthere9024I don't think it is sarcasm tbh
Older generations ALWAYS think that the newer generations are lazy and stupid. It was true in the past, it's true now and it will be true in the future. I'm pretty sure Gen Z will have the same attitude for the younger generations once they get older. The same will be true for the generations that will come after.
“Lack of technological skills, that one surprised me!”
Really? You know watching TikTok videos and creating videos, playing video games doesn’t make you proficient at Excel or programming.
It’s like when grandma says: “You’re gonna be a computer scientist someday” when you plugged in the Super Nintendo properly.
Yeah, theres three things you need to actually be good at something. Attention span, problem solving, interest and the will to continue even if it gets hard and discomforting for you. Scrolling Tiktok, playing games, posting memes is the borderline easiest thing you can do with a PC/Smartphone. And i guess theres so many people who WANT TO TRY certain skills but they give up after watching 30 youtube videos on how to do something, just for them to try it themselves for the first time and give up after 1 hour because its harder than they thought, so back to scrolling and tiktok because it gives them the same pleasure as if they learned that skill + they relieved their stress and can focus again on things that does not demand their brain.
Lol, as a Gen-X compsci person, this is deadly accurate
You crushed my dreams
They're claiming that millenials are "hard-working" even though millenials are now heading towards the age of 40, and those who have good work ethic have already bypassed certain filters. I'm in my 30's and I've impressed several Gen X because of the stuff already under my belt, but that doesn't compare to my 35-year-old female roommate who spent her entire 20's traveling around the country, doing odd jobs, while experimenting with relationships and substances. Gen Z is still figuring themselves out. Too young to know how excel may be effectively utilized in an office space (while older folks have gotten a handle to it over time), but old enough to be putting a foot into the professional environment. Gen Z is that 22-year-old kid who was told to go to college, and later graduated with minimal experience and high hopes that they'll make something of themselves. Us millenials? We either have it or we don't.
Hard to work with translates to: they know their rights and their worth and refuse to be mistreated by a boss who couldn’t give two shits about them.
Exactly
Nah it's translates to laziness.
@@flyingjew2994y'all don't pay enough for attentiveness. And you don't treat us with enough respect to deserve it. "Respect is earned" goes both ways.
@heavenly senju It's part of your job and it's clearly stated in the job description before you apply. You come in, do your work, and then get paid for it. If you can't do that then leave
@@flyingjew2994 That's the thing. Y'all don't want us to do what's in our job description. Y'all want us to go "above and beyond" without having to pay "above and beyond" money. Doing only what's in your job description is somehow lazy. Doing only what you're paid to do is somehow lazy. And us younger generations are crazy.
Generation Z is not less motivated to go to work, but has different priorities.
Instead of seeing the meaning of life in going to work and earning money, young people place more value on leisure and activities outside of work.
It is not the salary that motivates Gen Z, but rather the enjoyment of the job, self-fulfillment or the opportunity to organize one's working hours flexibly.
So, for example, a young person today would be more likely to take a job that suits her or his interests and that allows the person to start working later or stop working earlier.
In my opinion it's a good development to pay more attention to yourself and have the courage to make demands about your work instead of working all your life in a job that you don't enjoy, just to earn enough money to be able to afford the bare necessities.
For this reason, I believe that the older generation can even learn from Gen Z at this point.
I absolutely agree with you young woman
As long as they pay their own way, good for them.
😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@DIAMONDGIRL57 Thank you for your constructive comment!
The problem is Gen Z focuses on the leisure crap and social media during the workday. I've fired quite a few Gen Z employees for that. They can't focus on work and instead focus on their private lives.
We aren’t hard to work with. We just set boundaries and we’re not easy to exploit and we’re not easy to manipulate.
Sure
For those who don't speak Gen Z
Set boundries= don't want to be responsible or accountable
Not easy to exploit= get offended by anything and everything and post about how oppressed they are on social media
Not easy to manipulate = don't care enough about anything so they don't do anything.
I put all people born on 1997 or after in the “possible but not excited about hiring unless I’m desperate” pile.
Wow this comment truly exemplifies the whole point of this news report . Good luck staying broke
It looks you will be looking for work for a long time
I think it has more to do with how the generation before us “gen z” did NOTHING to improve the work force and instead let it degrade into what we have. We are surviving not living. 20 years ago you could live off of a wage. Now you need 2 jobs to pay for student debt, food, rent, gas because you have to drive everywhere, water, dont forget maintenance on your home you rent not own, on your car you likely are paying off and dont own, god forbid you want to go to the doctor. Better be homeless cause thats the only way you get healthcare without crippling your bank account. There is so much we have to fix and we are being talked down to for complaining about a work OUR parents and their parents created.
It has to do with gen z feeling entitled, complaining and blaming. There are other factors involved it’s not all about it being one generations fault. Your attitude as modeled by you, and in my experience with working with some gen z, sucks. The internet f***ed up your minds and made you self-centered. And you don’t even see it.
Millennials rock. We don’t care about schmoozing and water cooler BS chit chat, we just wanna work and get the hell outa there. 😅
The real problem is that our society is very prejudice. It is so easy to group specific people together and call them names all because of your own bad experiences. We are forgetting that not all people are the same,some Gen Z people can be respectful,hard working and so on. It depends on how someone was raised and what kind of a person they are.
They are out there, just seems to be a small percentage. Especially when anecdotal stories across the board are the same, it becomes a pattern, therefore specific age groups and ethnicities get labeled. Wrong? Maybe, but it’s hard to argue when examples are everywhere
Millennial women are known for being whores anyway. Alcohol, drugs, wild parties, lack of self control, headaches. No sane man who wishes to live a good honest life would listen to women possessed by evil spirits anyway. Jesus Christ is the way, the truth and the life. Repent, for we are in the last days.
@@skeezix8156 It's also hard to see the point in trying to change stigmas when they're so easily given. So it's a double-edged sword. A self fullfilling prophecy if you will.
@@NamesZKP I do appreciate the younger gen’s who don’t fall into the worthless category. Like redgamerbear said, it depends on how they were raised or actually listened to their parents. I know a lot of parents who really tried to raise their kids right and they turned out to be shitasses. Just depends on their circle of friends sometimes
How is it prejudice? These managers have worked with them, and 74% of them don't like what they see
Nah I say old people are hard to work with
=hard to keep up with because we're actually doing the work.
@@Rob-- lmao
Most in general are hard to work with. Their age playing little role in that reality lol. In my opinion.
@@Rob-- ok boomer!🙄
@@thispersonrighthere9024Hope you know that's not an insult. Boomer's are proud to be Boomers.
Older people have been griping about younger people since time immemorial. Generations following their own are described as too cautious, too dangerous, too worried, too self absorbed, and yes, too lazy. From the 4th Century, Aristotle noted the young, “think they know everything and are quite certain about it”, that youth, “are high minded because they have not been humbled by life, nor have they experienced the force of circumstances”, to a French magazine in 1771, “a race of effeminate, self admiring, emaciated Fribbles”, to an author in 1925 describing young people as, “grossly thoughtless, rude and utterly selfish”, to a 1951 description of “pampered youth”, to Boomers who are, “whiny and too politically passive”on down to Millennials and generation X er’s who are reportedly, “phone addicted, self obsessed, hash tagging, snap chatting, kale munching, twerking, lazy, whining, ill informed, politically correct, cosseted narcissists, who find absolutely everything mortally offensive and believe there is 165 ways to sexually identify”. In other words, all generations are a product of their environment and circumstances of the world that shaped them. Yet somehow, we manage to survive.
Rinse, wash, repeat
Never before was there a generation so petrified of the outside world that they prefer to spend their entire working lives in their childhood bedroom, shielded from anything bad.
@@talscriver5870 🎯. Afraid of conversation, afraid of conflict, afraid of challenges, afraid to fail,
Each generation faces their own adversities. They may be different appearance but they all create a domino effect of never ending issues. That’s just part of life. Maybe in a handful of centuries our human species will struggle with proper spaceship docking.
Thats true that every generation complained about the younger generation. The problem is if its CONSTANTLY gets worse, theres the point where it got so bad that a certain generation is so much worse than the previous that everything went so downhill that society does not function properly let alone your workers. When you constantly complain that food gets worse and is unhealthy, year after year it gets worse until its so bad that it does not have any taste at all and is so unhealthy that you can't eat it anymore. Thats what happening with the current generation, it got so bad that havin a normal running company is not possible anymore because the younger people you need in your company now got so spoiled that your company won't function properly. Theres no upwards trend but constant downward trend, and if it goes till the absolute zero, that means the previous generation was already really bad, but the next one is tenfold worse to the point where its a disaster. So constant bitching about how everything got worse is no indicator that we come to a stop now, but eventually one day we will, and if we are in the couple last phases this just shows.
Im gen z and i think we are done being slaves for crappy companies and starti g a new revolution to be treated as human
They were the most fun. We had to knuckle down when we got busy, but we had each others backs. I was at least 15 years older than them and i got their respect and they got mine. I was a working example, I would do the same work as them.
“Ah these damn youngsters.” Keep malding, we will replace you lol
I think it’s just the age range rather than the generation. They’ll grow up, and mature.
It's cost of living. Average cost to maintain a household is roughly 40,859~ from one of the more optimistic estimations, other estimates are higher. The average wages for people 18-24 is 37k.
Literally very young people are not getting paid enough to take care of themselves.
It is the age range
The same complaints about Gen Z was the same as the Millenials minus the being shy part
Millennials were just as entitled, sensitive or dramatic in their 20s
Wait like 20 years Millenials will start complaining about Gen Alphas
They're claiming that millenials are "hard-working" even though millenials are now heading towards the age of 40, and those who have good work ethic have already bypassed certain filters.

We either already have it or we don't, and there's not much room nor time left to experiment.
The average living expenses need in 2023 was estimated at 40,859. The average total earns for people 18-24 is 37,000.
@@coldeed Key word: Average
@@stevennguyen4993 Your point is?
Older people typically have lower expenses. So the average expenses for a 18-24 year old are closer to high 40 thousands. The average person under 26 isn't paid enough to provide for themselves.
@@coldeed Why ask what my point was when your original reply doesn't actually make sense as a reply to my point? I'm talking about the concept of "hard work" and your reply is average living expenses.
As far as "averages" are concerned, I don't actually care for "averages" unless I can see the distribution curve of that average. This is also why standard deviations matter. You can have a standard curve (hill) or a divided curve between two extremes.
@@stevennguyen4993 People are not incentivised to work hard when odds are they wouldn't even be paid well enough to meet basic needs.
If the trend continues people will just turn to other investments and not dedicate time to working. Especially when classically it being very reasonable for people to work hard to earn an income that could support more than a single person and own property beyond simple basic needs.
This isn’t true millennials love to be on Internet 24 7 I love the internet
As a millennial, The boomer generation is way more difficult to work with. Unable to adapt, throwing tantrums for not getting their way, and a total superiority complex. Seems as if they’re afraid of the innovations that gen z has to offer.
I love my gen z coworkers, they teach me new things all the time and I’m sorry that previous generations have failed you guys.
"I want slaves and robots not thinking individuals who have the ability to ask for a raise" -every employer
Basically a while back there was a new movement called Quiet Quitters and it basically means that you don’t go far beyond, but only do your job that pays you. As long as you’re in a comfortable position with good pay. You are good. Most company managers or ceos don’t like the idea because they’re putting the bare minimum or slightly above up.
The gen z and millennials were mostly part of it than other generations.
I’m not sure if this video was focusing on that or not, but it’s a good guess 🤷♂️.
Maybe if you wanted Gen Z to work harder, you boomers shouldnt have destroyed the country...? im not even genz btw
@farklestaxbaum4945 your comment made me laugh when you said “I’m Not Gen Z Btw” Lol but I’m A Millenial
Yeah, every grandparent wanted grandchildren and didn't prepare their own children for the role.
I'm 63 and kinda want to retire but work begs me to stay because gen z sucks
probably because gen z doesnt do your job so well because they actually have standards and wont be manipulated to do more than needed, jobs want workers that'll go above and beyond gen z will do the bare minimum because they actually care and won't be manipulated like that
It’s not even a gen z vs whatever anymore, no it’s rich vs poor, I’ve watched so many older 60+ coworkers that are college educated, or worked hard their whole life unable to retire now, especially those forced to rent.
I’ve seen so many teachers have to work a job at Walmart and their teacher job just to survive.
We need to stop letting the government and corporations divide us into categories so we point the finger at each other instead of them.
It’s a lot harder to succeed nowadays.
This generation doesn’t want to work a shitty job that doesn’t pay well, and overworks you for a wage that is so pitiful you would need 4-5 jobs at once in order to afford just paying rent comfortably the whole year. Where in yesteryear you could get by with a minimum wage job.
Buying a House is the hardest it’s ever been, mortgages are outrages, this generation can’t even afford a shitty used car comfortably, assets aren’t as attainable as they used to be.
Where years ago an associates or a bachelors was valuable, now not so much. it’s all about a masters degree or a PHD on top of hours of experience you get no pay for.
In the 80’s you could get by with less work and much less requirements for things. And nearly EVERY job had way less competition compared to today where EVERYTHING is available to anyone at the tap of a screen.
Assets were realistically attainable back then, not easy to get, but attainable. Now they simply ARENT.
Lets not even bullshit here. This generations odds of success are rough at best.
yeah lol. i just graduated highschool a few months ago and i cant even get a minimum wage job, even if i fullfill a few of their requirements (like knowing a specific language) i just get ghosted. Also fuck college.
Judging a generation for being lazy and unproductive and then wondering why we are really tired of this all
One thing I notice also is this generation is they act tough but will literally fall to pieces if called on their BS. I have spoken to other teachers who have said the same thing.
They are willfully ignorant and completely non proactive when it comes to learning about technology beyond what's handed to them simplistically on their phone.
Gen X! The last generation that lived actual life
Im a millennial & I love internet social media twitch fan for life
@@marioantoniocrespoMexican92 okay bot
You are so right.
Nothing to do with generations. Every generation whose age is under 27 act like that. 1
Yeah, you have some sense. It's made worse with economics rn. Gen z aren't pairing up out of necessity like the former ones. Average annual expenses (rent, food, other reasonable needs like car insurance, clothing, basic utilities) are roughly in the 40ks range of expenses, and most of gen z isn't even making 40k total a year.
@@coldeed you should realize that people back in the days have even less disposable income. people back in the 1930s have median disposal income of just 20k after adjusted for inflation. modern day people cant afford to live because of the insane debt. student loans, car loans, morgatges, credit card debts which the people back in the days did not have to deal with.,
@@IamAWESOME3980 The average person doesn't have any disposable income until 26. Everything under that is averaging negative to average necessity.
With incredible optimistic estimations, you'd need to currently be 40 to have 20k expendable income. The overall average of Americans is only looking at a few thousands of dollars of disposable income at best. 20k is significantly greater than what the average American has for disposable income currently.
@@coldeed not true, 30% of americans make over 6 figures. heck, i am 27 years old and i make 130k a year. i got like 135k in my savings account and another 50k or so in my roth IRA and 401k. the key is to avoid debt, dont have child out of wedlock, and finished high school.
nearly every single person i know who live in poverty have one of the these issues. single mother or some father paying child support, lots of debt ie credit card and buying houses/cars they cant afford on loans and mortgages, AND worst of all, getting into student loans for useless degrees like social science and gender studies.
"a few thousands of dollars of disposable income at best."
lol, i came from third-world country. you know what disposable income there is? 5 dollars a day. You have 70% overweight and obesity among the population, my native country has literal famines and get this, no electricity, no running water, and no toilet.
you have no idea how good you have it. dont go into debt, start saving/investing, and dont do dumb stuffs like having unprotected sex and get pregnant/impregnate someone out of wedlock and you will be fine.
@@IamAWESOME3980 So I don't know if maths not your strong suit but 6 figures isn't exactly impressive and out of context your situation isn't even remotely interesting or impressive.
It's not the 90s, having 100k on some books and making roughly 100k isn't impressive, especially with what you're saying and pretty clearly leaving out significant context. The money has depreciated value, you're not even reasonably close to "middleclass" if we don't pretend it's a contest of a meaningless percentile and talk about how pathetic the spending power currently is.
And it's also off topic. I'm sure your mom and dad helped you get your shit together to be in such a position without any significant risk or debt and you pat yourself on the back for not having a kid like it's complex you use a rubber. It's a bit obvious, if you're not totally making this up you're leaving out the context of what conditions you had at 18 to pretty much avoid all debts, throw in strong investments, afford education and cost of living, because when I'm describing is that on the typical American wage you wouldn't be able to do that until your mid-thirties because it would literally not be reasonable for you to afford such things and would force you into debt. I wouldn't be shocked if you'd start advising people to ask their mom and dad to find them a 60k starting salary/loan as a teenager, or you would advise them to do something such as live off their parents which may not even be reasonable/possible. It just sounds like you're telling some fantasy flex about having an easy life that's grossly hyperbolic at best, because frankly even if you are not exaggerating the conditions of your life, I can probably say that it is next to impossible that you find yourself in your current position from entirely independent efforts with 0 risk and expense.
Either way, it's not much a valuable or intelligent take. I could say the same thing being 26, but your pretty clearly older making shit up with how falsely your estimating the world.
Running water is literally ancient technology at this point is harder to find absent than not. Electricity is present on 90% of the globe, internet is available for over half already which indicates your looking at 2/3s the world having rather acceptable power infrastructure.
You're legitimately talking about coming from the third world but somehow coming to America and not incurring any debts in order to afford education, living, savings etc all the same time, with supposedly wages that are far greater than average etc.
It just kind of makes me question what context are you even speaking in? Were your parents just wealthy foreigners and you're pretending like you came from some bum fuck shit hole that's far more devolved than most of the planet? Was your mother or father that brought you to this country one of the total idiots that uncured debt in order to essentially elevate their status, in a former time when it wasn't as negative economically as it is today which is what we are discussing? Where does your fortunate position actually in your mind somehow invalidate the standards or depreciating at such an exaggerated rate? Because it doesn't sound like it does and it sounds like you are utterly incompetent to understand how you've lived the life you've lived, or utterly unaware and totally stupid to the way that your family provided this for you.
Because we can talk about how if this is the situation that you've been handed, and the opportunities that your family provided to you then you may have a very good family. That doesn't mean anything about the current state of economics in the country so maybe you should just not speak about that if you're not smart enough to understand the difference.
Because I don't desire to insult you as person here, but frankly you're not speaking from a sensible position in the slightest. The issue here is that the actual degree of expendable income has done nothing but gone down in the negative for decades at this point in this country. It's not some moronic contest of "there's someplace", it is literally an issue that currently the standards that are continuing to trend things downward are simply making everyone in this country less wealthy, and the spending power of our money is doing the exact opposite of growing. Looking at the average indicates that it is incredibly common the majority of people that are not dependent on others for basic necessities would find themselves at significant negative deficit more often than not for even acquiring the bare essentials.
And I'll explain this with mathematic things cuz I do not want you to take this at all personally I do not think it is a bad thing that if you've worked well with your family and it has been prosperous for all of you that that is something I at all oppose.
You're describing that in these very bad poor places people have an expendable income of roughly $5 dollars.
I'm explaining that Americans that do not have any family/friends etc they can rely on and would have to live independently at 18 years of age would typically be seeing a -15,000 dollar margin before they would even hit what would be considered expendable income and currently using the estimates for expenses of necessities and average wages by age, anyone that is not at a minimum 26 is in that current position. And by your own admission that would make them more impoverished than those people in the third world state of living that you're describing wealthier and in a better situation to provide for themselves. It would take 15 years for them to get out of a negative deficit on the average income. This means that if you're looking at the younger population they literally have less than zero expendable income. It is looking like it will trend worse as things are going. That is the current state of this country.
If you even attempted to do literally none of the things that you were afforded to do apparently without accumulating debt here as an 18 year old alone, you would literally need to be homeless for the first half a decade of your adult life to potentially afford renting alone. The current economic state for our use is comparable to the bad working conditions of the 1880s, where it would be common for a 70 hour work week in order to afford basic essentials. That's not exactly a standard I would call acceptable.
Because you could say really ignorant things like "people just need to get a full ride in school" Will you fail to understand basic mathematical concepts I'm presenting to you, can't understand the statistical comparison or historical parallels to rather unfortunate times. Even with education being 100% free it still isn't economically prosperous. Being able to rely on and work well within your own family is. And this isn't something people should insult or mock people over, people having strong families in which they all agree to move in sensible directions is the most positive thing people can do for their own wealth.
But this isn't even a discussion on what people can do for their own wealth. Specifically what spawned us talking about this at all is what is the youngest generation is up to, my suggestion is the economic state that the youngest people in this country is ridiculously bad. When what day can be expected entering the workforce is needing a 50% increase in pay to simply be able to provide for themselves currently, it's clear that the economy we have now isn't indicative of the same type of prosperity roughly 50 years ago where was actually somewhat reasonable to consider someone simply getting a job earning some money and very quickly and simply appreciating their own wealth. Now it is little more than a debt funnel.
2 of my colleagues are gen z and i agree. They are bossy, dishonest and easily offended. If you do not agree with their worldview, they immediately call the manager 😅
They have a strong black/white thinking and lack the courage to discuss something with other people. I will most likely decide to not speak with them until it is necessary.
As a genz I very much agree to this. I prefer older people, especially those who are on a little more freebie side though.
But I'm still going to follow my dreams and I'm a rebel in that regard.
You mean like boomers with racism and sexism?
Because I'm gen z and I hate people that are different, can't grow the fuck up and recognize that it's work, you don't have to like people you work with, care about what they do, or need an environment of a therapy office where anyone has to care how you feel or are doing.
Less than 10% of people older than me are on that wavelength. Most would try to get me fired over hating dark and being aware women are less capable.
I also make much more than the average age people of my generation, and it's the only reason I work. I completely understand why they do next to nothing for wages that don't even cover the average budget of an independent person.
By "dishonest", they mean "too honest".
I want to change that but my stupid autism has to go in
Does anybody else notice that Gen Z workers DO NOT USE PUNCTUATION at work? I’m referring specifically to the use of periods at the end of sentences. They all seem to be using commas in every location that should have a period. What is that about? Does anyone know?
narcissistic
I don’t like talking to Gen-Z people so easily offended and im just gonna call you your name I don’t care how you identify
Gen Z guy here. I assume your the same way as those crazy wimpy people that complain about racism, sexism, homosexuality etc.
Like if I told you I'm not the biggest fan of working with women, blacks or gays you'd probably start some bs over than. That's why I work alone 6 days a week and 48 hrs each week.
@GIGI-lv1qt how do you feel about us 1995 babies ?
Ill Admit the Attention span Problem is me
It was the previous generations who became passive and let the culture turn into this. Now the chickens are coming back home to roost.
I think the majority of humans in Generation Z are lazy.
We can't get people to stay more than 2 days at work. Even after a big pay jump. They just don't care.
this woke show is gross,,bring back Steve Edwards
Get rid of the anti woke comments
I diagnosed this as _skill issue._
We find they are always lazy on their phone . Get upset at the slightest thing . Like to criticise people that have been doing the same job for years. Basically they are a bunch of moaners. They younger ones are even worst.
Soooooooo true. Lazy. Unreliable. Fragile. Entitled. The list goes on.
And you are cheap, broke, not paying enough, on my ass for 12$ an hour and wonder why
Well idk about that cause I’m a gen z and I can fucken careless there is a small percentage that are completely menaces to society
Man thats only in America
I love Europe for being a help
@@Sir_SP I'm jealous ish
Breaking news: gen z has nothing to work towards in a society where succes is limited
In other news, the sky is blue.
No way no lack of tech skills!!!! Lol
Stop hiring that will teach them
I know this is an older clip but it must be said. I have received professional emails from gen z saying “ whyyyyy” like how they text their friends. Or “oh myyy”. Please, please DO NOT do that. the fact you have to be told not to write like that professionally is shocking to be honest.
whyyyy thooouhhhg??? 😭😭
0:16, what's more surprising is that you even believe it...
gen z is : ill pole dance , only fans
im fak je sus hahahahha
and think its funny
im gen z too ig , 2002 born and i hate todays generation
Older generations ALWAYS think that the newer generations are lazy and stupid. It was true in the past, it's true now and it will be true in the future. I'm pretty sure Gen Z will have the same attitude for the younger generations once they get older. The same will be true for the generations that will come after.
They should hire Gen X.
Gen X is the best to work with!!
At least y'all are heavily right wing. Right now the economy is too messed up for y'all to expect stunning results from gen z. They are paid heavily under the annual expenses for living.
This is bad, really, really bad.... and I thought the worst part of Gen Z is its inability to construct a sentence let alone write one.
They have egos to 1000% but can’t even read properly or pronounce certain words correctly. Basic skills and they don’t even realize how ret***ed they are is the craaaziest part.
what're you on about 😭
@@Kixal07 I rest my case.
@@emillion4470 HAHAHAHA WHAT
@@Kixal07 Punctuation, it's a good thing.
late millennials and all of gen z are the first generation of kids to be more lame than the previous generation. Most older gens were complaining about how wild and crazy these kids were compared to their own generation.
Totally true.
This is what happens when you try to replace a successful foundation of judeo Christian cultural principles such as “let your yes mean yes and your no mean no” and “if a man does not work let him not eat” and “do unto others as you would have them do unto you” with nihilism ones like “this don’t matter, none of this matters” “f you pay me” and “we on demon time” . And ppl act surprised 😂😂
Yes!!! Preach! Well said 👆🏾👆🏾👆🏾
It’s the decline of the West, by design.
Judeo Christan my ass lol
Ah yes, the successful foundation of judeo Christian cultural principles such as hitting your wife.
pay people a liveable wage and stop expecting them to stay an extra hour or two after work *without pay!*
Yeah everyone avoid to work with their childs.
Bring back the draft.
Z Gen calls any work they are asked to do... "exploitation", and they believe they deserve things just because they exist, so better to be prepared when you hire them. Try to not to make fun about all their excuses to avoid working, because they get offended very easy.
Yes because we’re not working extra for BS wages find someone else to exploit our generation will work what we are paid!
Bullshit
Put it the job description first, or pay extra for extra work, if you can't figure that one out you don't deserve to be making demands
first "I deserve everything" 👆
🤦♀️🤦♀️ us Genzer’s are willing to do the work but like u can’t expect us to do more than we were asked and not be credited for it that’s basically exploitation
rage bait
Hah, Im 27.
Of course they are hard to deal with, they shielded themselves from everything around them that they didn’t like, and started in their so called safe space bubble their entire youth, and suddenly they have to deal with all the hard stuff that the rest of us had 20 years to deal with, because we were put in those situations every day, su we could grow up, and become responsible adults. Gen Z are basically still just 5 year old children in a 25 year old body.
wow way to show your bias
@@chinikery2590if i had a penny for every time a boomer or genX'er complained about the generations that they raised, i wouldn't need to work anymore.
@@thispersonrighthere9024 damn right 🤣
yes and your generation Is just hard working all the time Nonstop 😂 Are you smoking crack? Every generation Has tons of lazy people I mean hell Some of that older generation Made the younger generation that way It just depends How they were raised. I'm 23 & I already have my own house + one kid but I can barely afford my bills I can barely save any money Also doesn't help that your Country is almost on a economic collapse & Fighting Stupid proxy wars Spending hundreds and billions on Wars that shouldn't even be happening. It's kind of hard for my generation to save money right now No wonder why some people choose to be high then work. I didn't go to college by the way Can't really do that when I have bills to pay and put food on the table for my son. There's way too many people in these comments Hating on people they don't even know because there was a few bad apples don't mean the whole tree is bad Same goes to any other generation. I know people at my work place that are fifteen years older than me with way more experience & they don't bother training younger people the proper way Whatsoever Lots of them sit on their ass & get Paid 50 An hour It's not just my generation. I can bust my ass all day and not even make half of what those guys do sitting on their ass I mean what do you want us to do? We're just trying to live the best we can in this F UP world.
So interesting thought, but I honestly feel like the time period where we had the milk carton programs and stuff like that really shaped how Americans raise their kids. Our children get coddled and sheltered, given no chance to be independent. If you see a 10 year old wandering the neighborhood to head to the park the police get called. Our kids are given no independence, vs some European countries where they don’t walk their kids up to the kindergarten door, where they let their kids wander the block. It harms kids in the worst way possible, to where they’re not independent and can’t make it as a functioning adult for a long while. Not to mention they’re stuffed into an economy where they can’t make it alone.
Learn to tell the truth maybe ? The title should be “Gen Z is the hardest generation to take advantage of”
No, it’s gen Z has the luxury of not paying for living expenses bc they live with their parents so they don’t have to trade their time for money as many people do. The truth is you have to start somewhere and being entitled, being difficult and complaining doesn’t make you money. Instead of framing work as a way to be taken advantage of it’s better to find work that interests you
If you come to work and barely do anything yet still get paid you are the one taking advantage, not the one being taken advantage of.
@@cmyskinsfanyou got that completely backwards
@@Kixal07 so someone else owes you a check just because you exist? How was what I said wrong?

YES, THEY Are lazy and hard to work with.
Worst generation so far
Belt across the face.
