what boomers and x-ers fail to grasp when they mock zoomers for "not being able to handle 5-8" is that zoomers 5-8 is nothing like theirs ever was, when they were properly taught and introduced to the workforce; could freely socialize, drink cofe, and waste company time on petty drama; and even while wasting time they knew they would be paid good enough to support a family and even have some time nice vacation

nobody is there to teach zoomers pretty much anything even when (and they often do) pay for their internship instead of getting paid; no socializing can be done when eagle-eyed bosses screech when they "catch" you going to the bathroom; you have to be always available even after hours or else you're a "weak asset" and as a result get no rest; and when the payout is barely enough to pay rent and food but no luxuries like insulin, honestly, why even bother with 5-8

millennials are a special case, they never entered the workforce at all, forever denied by the "you have no work experience :(" barrier

@matana
Don't forget about the modern opinion control, where the boss outright tells you to believe a philosophy that doesn't real, or get fired for wrong think.

Other then that, you're spot on.

@matana
The company literally forces me to answer this question:

How happy are you with company's push for diversity? 1-10
If I say 1, then obviously, the company didn't fire enough white guys yet.
If I say 10, then firing white guys is a thing I'm happy with.

And I start shaking over these surveys. You know... Nothing wakes you up like a good cup of psychological horror in the morning.

@LukeAlmighty @matana if it's just a number of 1-10 then say 5 and refuse to elaborate. if they ask you directly just say "it's alright" and then refuse to elaborate further.

@beardalaxy @matana
Well, I noticed, that they do mainly focus on getting all numbers up to at least 8, so I put 10 literally everywhere, and move on with my day.

It's the only way to fill the survey without feeling horrible.

@LukeAlmighty @matana I just dont answer surveys and go look I have no time for these questions. Ill do them at home if you pay me.
@matana Speaking from personal experience boomers and x-ers are pretty much unanimously the laziest workers in the shop. Slow pace even when they're given less to do and constantly talking. I've had boomer coworkers spend the first half an hour after break chatting only to tell me I'm not moving fast enough right after. They rarely take overtime but expect younger guys to do so. I've known guys my age that pull ten hour shifts at one shop before going to work on a farm for several hours get told they don't put in enough effort. My boomer supervisor on the other hand took two weeks to sign some papers so I could request a raise, even telling me several times it was too much work and he hadn't gotten around to it. I didn't get the raise apparently I didn't work hard enough. Kind of rambling but fuck boomers.
@matana I've been in the workforce for over a decade as a millenial lol wut. Otherwise yeah X and above are clueless about material conditions for the youth.
if you have real skills, inteview well and have a handful of certs you can easily get hired places without experience.

That being said - it'll still basically be a rip off once you get in there, but at least it's an income vs nothing.
is that a joke? My parents didn't pass shit to me for inheritance, I got zero from them. And they had zero industry connections either. Maybe you just need to grow up and stop trying to be a starving artist and get a skill the market actually needs.
Only jews get nepotism benefits, ain't shit like that coming to white guys, but their racket is dying so that makes me smile.

We'll make this country a better deal for the zoomers after we kick these zog retards out.
