I don't agree at all that they are a lazy generation. They've just been presented with little to no economic opportunities, especially in areas that many of them care about like climate collapse, which is an in-our-lifetime threat to them. There's not much in the way of an economic ladder, and many are saddled with a great deal of student debt because they've had it drilled into them that a degree is the only way to get a good job. Then you graduate with a degree and there are still no good jobs, but you still have to pay it off.

I've had so many Gen Z interns that I've noticed they dont care about being fired from a job right out of College. Little Drive to keep themselves busy. They don't like to ask questions, and would rather do something wrong than ask and do it right the first time. Even If I show them how to do it right the first time, if you forget, just ask.

There isn't much of a ladder to climb as Millennials are still there to fill the void. Millennials have work experience and work hard.

But there is a notable gap and a Gen Zer is easy to pick from the crowd.

Not all are bad though. In fact many didn't have to struggle like a Millennial did early in life. My first 5 years in the work force was slow moving up the ladder. Entering the workforce in 2008 was not pretty for me.

Problem with GenZ is they didn't eat the flintstone vitamins we Millennial ate, and it shows.

This argument is literally just true about teenagers and young adults in general, and has been true throughout history. "The youth of today" through the ages: https://proto-knowledge.blogspot.com/2010/11/what-is-wrong-w...

Fact of the matter is that people mature as they age, and gain responsibilities that require them to knuckle down.
