Popular Post georgegeorgia Posted October 30, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted October 30, 2023 This current Generation is apparently called Gen Z The question is ,is my assumption they're lazy right? I notice in my workplace that Gen Z always refuse any extra overtime shifts,it's always the old guys doing it ,secondly they seem to hate working weekends. The phone and taking selfies ,even as a hospital cleaner I saw a Gen Z taking a selfie of the floors he mopped , he told me he was putting it on Instagram. This all confirmed when I just read on another forum that bar girls in Soi 6 Pattaya ( Gen Z) were refusing customers,one wrote ," these generation of bar girls are not that interested in making money like the past generations" Is this true ,are they not interested in buying houses , working hard for the future like their grandparents? 1 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Photoguy21 Posted October 30, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted October 30, 2023 (edited) They just hate the concept of work. Been given everything and treated like a baby by the family so when they get a job they cant handle having to work all the time without having a latte or a rest. They seem to consider that a full days work is around 2 hours per day. Edited October 30, 2023 by Photoguy21 3 1 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Prubangboy Posted October 30, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted October 30, 2023 There's so much less incentive for them to try. What do you get for being the best counter person at 7/11? Also: At their age, I was a hippie, hoping to make a living as a Zen poet. So I'll leave the stern judgement to imperious hospital building services professionals. 2 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Stocky Posted October 30, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted October 30, 2023 On October 19, a TikToker named Brielle, who recently started a corporate job in the New York area, posted a video where she appeared visibly upset as she addressed the camera. The on-screen caption read, "in a 9-5 how do u have time for ur life." https://www.insider.com/college-graduate-upset-shock-working-nine-to-five-tiktok-2023-10 Oh dear, the poor child! 1 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post ravip Posted October 30, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted October 30, 2023 "refuse any extra overtime shifts, hate working weekends" I wouldnt call that being lazy. Just that they dont want the extra money and want to chill out during the weekends. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Will B Good Posted October 30, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted October 30, 2023 Maybe they are clever enough to recognise that them working harder is only good for the profit-takers (the bosses and shareholders) and does little for their quality of life.........maybe not so much lazy as smart. 5 1 2 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Fat is a type of crazy Posted October 30, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted October 30, 2023 The general concept is life is a bit more about experiences than a stable boring life. If you think how hard it is for the young to buy a house in western countries you can see why some might take a different path. Working from home was a revelation for me and for many in the workplace and showed that being productive didn't have to mean the boring tedious politeness of long commutes and sitting under fluorescent lights 5 days a week. So staff look at other ways to make work suck less but still doing the job. Overtime...up to them..why exhaust yourself for some crappy company. I work for the government so at least see some good coming from what I do ... don't laugh. But in fact most young I see aren't different ... fairly hard working ..some still super ambitious .. some not .. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Prubangboy Posted October 30, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted October 30, 2023 (edited) I think those slatternly Pattaya harlots are finding better prospects on their phone then what's sitting in front of them at the bar. I have to believe that those glorious days when a hot-looking woman would play a game of Jenga with me in a bar, just on speculation, are gone and never to return. Who, who can I blame for this?

Ben Zioner Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 Just worry about what is going to happen once they reach retirement age. I have know many boomers saying: I'll pay off my house and save a bit so the state pension will be enough. 30 years later, after a divorce they were left with their meager pension and went to Thighland. Zeers won't have that choice. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

georgegeorgia Posted October 30, 2023 Author Share Posted October 30, 2023 Gen Z are a self entitled generation growing up watching tiktok and influencers travelling the globe taking selfies in gym mirrors. They get depressed when they find out they have to go and do work , there are bills to be paid , And the best part , they actually have no social interaction skills with customers, all there friends are on Facebook 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even the most progressive dotcoms seem to be snapping to the fact that they're just not getting the productivity out of their remote workers and are increasing the hours they actually have to bathe, dress and show up at the office. Of course, if their looks are good enough for OnlyFans, that's an option. But that come with its own price. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Working with many Gen Z Gen Z would regard that statement as being sexually suggestive, they don't like guys perving at girls especially guys double or triple their age , everyone must be the same ,no gender , no labels and certainly no getting laid ,( without signed permission ) Gen Z look down on older guys going to Asia , won't let you know what they call them Edited October 30, 2023 by georgegeorgia 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
