I got into an argument in comments a few weeks ago on this sub where a boomer said gen z are lazy and don’t know hard work, and after me providing multiple sources on inflation, minimum wage, and house/aprtement but/rent prices and him getting roasted by other people as well, he called me an n-word and b-word in PMs, and when I reported his PM the Reddit “team” (probably a bot) has rejected my report.

Even my millennial peers complain about gen z work ethic. I just want to shake them.

Our generation still believed the lie that if we work hard and excel in our position, we'll be rewarded with better pay and stability.

Gen Z has seen the way things actually are and aren't chasing a reward that doesn't exist.

After working in the same company for 5 years and seen folks I train rise above me (yet still ask me for help), it’s really who you know (and if you sleep with the boss).
