Bosses are firing Gen Z grads just months after hiring them.
I admit I clicked on this clickbait headline. Most of the article turned out to be the usual folderol about how the Young People Nowadays are lazy and sloppy and don’t want to work. Same thing that was said about Millennials, GenX, Boomers and every other generation going back to ancient Greece.
The bottom of the article talks about the importance of having a good attitude in the workplace when you are in your 20s. Very true—I had a bad attitude in my 20s, spent much of my 30s unlearning that, and sabotaged my career because of it.
Now I’m working on not being that older worker who … well, who acts like he believes the kinds of stereotypes promulgated in this article.
