I pumped gas up hill, both ways, all summer when I was 16 and used the money to pay for college, buy a house, and invest in oil. You just need to try harder.
I guess I’m lucky to live & work somewhere where the system kinda works, but the boomers are a great well of institutional knowledge, and the kids are working hard and changing the game. The ball was kind of dropped in the late 90s & 00s, but now millennials have surpassed gen x in terms of responsibility & authority in my industry and the zoomers I’ve had the opportunity to train are legit. I’m not sure what happened to gen x, but they all seem kind of sad and/or lost.
Pretty much, most of the gen x I work with are indistinguishable from boomers at this point.
Those are the genx’ers that now have wealth… the genx’ers without a pot to piss in are… err… pissed.
Almost like its wealth disparity, not age, is causing the problem after all!

Work at these shitty jobs? No, they don’t, and I don’t blame them!
