Fuck this whole shitting on the younger generation shit. It's bullshit and everyone knows it.
I'll admit I am pretty fucking annoyed by how much fash sympathy there is in gen Z. We were so close to actually being able to make a pretty big political swing to the left swing and they kind of fucked it up in the worst way possible.
With increased demands on this specific generation of caregivers, other studies have shown that it’s in a company’s best interest to ensure millennials have the resources and benefits that they need to succeed.
That's not gonna happen. Workers must toil to make more profits for the people at the top or they will be replaced.
The kids aren’t alright—and neither are the millennials.
Obligatory:

But yeah. This is just a "most burned out generation so far..." thing.
Give me 10 years they'll catch up.
Please don't make the mistakes we did.
Do not believe the promises of your employers-- slack off and claw back your time and energy as much as you possibly can.
TBH, I think people are now realising that. Covid was a big help in that regard. People are realising things like working from home was always a possibility etc.
That's because they're younger and haven't earned as much burnout yet! They're just entering the burnout market, back in my day I had just as much burnout as they do but now I've been in the burnout market long enough to earn more burnout! They'll catch up soon, it's not unfair it's just how gaining experience works!
(Read above as: boomers and wealth hand waving) :P
Turns out being part of a "sandwich" generation is not as tasty as the term implies.
This is a new term to me can you expand please?
It was in the article, it refers to a generation who is burdened with caring for both their parents/grandparents and their children.
Hey that's me and I'm not a melenial z or boomer
Fuck that. Every generation throws a hero up the pop shart.
🙄
GenX here. We plan to work full time until we are dead. We have no retirement savings. Get bent.
if you don't have any savings, that's on you.
Yeah right…
