_What Colleges Taught Gen-Z Is Getting Them Fired_

FTA: Seventy-five percent of companies reported that some or all of the recent college graduates they hired were unsatisfactory. According to the same survey, over half of businesses hiring Gen-Z employees believed these young professionals lacked motivation, communication skills, and readiness for the workforce. Many who hadn’t already fired recent graduates they hired this summer said they’d seen enough to avoid hiring from next year’s cohort.

Such reports invite skepticism; older generations have always criticized the younger for perceived shortcomings. It’s not uncommon for aging generations to despair of those who follow them. Poor work ethic and reliance on technology are the usual culprits. In Ancient Greece, teachers at Aristotle’s Lyceum supposedly complained of the slowest and dullest students resorting to writing things down on parchments (taking notes) because they couldn’t be bothered to use their brains.

But the modern culture clash is likely to be acute: corporate norms bear little resemblance to the post-pandemic campus culture from which young people are emerging. But this isn’t just a story of generational tension. It’s a direct reflection of the US university system — and its failure.

Business leaders complain that recent graduates are unable to work independently, lack motivation and problem-solving abilities, and are easily offended.

@Junes I hate it when people just let this shit become their entire personality it's so cringe and self defeating

I can't even

Under 16s banned from social media starting today in Australia.

When does state violence against minors justify violent rebellion? If not this act by the Australian government, then when?

We have become a society of docile creatures programmed to obey. When I was in school the school yard itself was far more dangerous than anything online ever could be. Sure, there are predators, but if you were in school prior to the past two decades school yard bullies probably did far more damage than the internet has done to youth today.

You can throw forth tons of sad stories with victims, but it hardly justifies the violence used by government to restrain companies and curtail the free speech rights of young people.

It's time to stop treating kids like they're owned no different from an animal or family pet. Kids should NOT be slaves of a sick twisted class of adult.

Kids should not be forced to swipe IDs to buy lunch, humans shouldn't be forced to swipe plastic to get into national parks, and those of us still alive need to take a stand and put some skin in the game in taking a stand against that which is the most violent to us all: Government, including government schooling.

Apparently the voice actor for Sheen from The Adventures of Jimmy Neutron passed away today.

Planet Sheen was a shitty spinoff but I really liked the original show for it's sometimes entertaining moments. Like the episode where the town becomes addicted to Jimmy's candy.

:f:

Yay or nay?

the new digital ID laws in Australia specifically exempt Bluesky
