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
