PartyBullshiitThat is a 1000% fact.
work conditions are far better now than in the past, tools and equipment are far better now than in the past, computer programs can now do majority of the work that has to be done by hand in the past. Work loads are lower now than ever before because of mass automation on production lines. You can disagree all you want and you’ll continue to look absolutely stupid. Trying to claim people work harder now than in the past is fucking insane. Especially in the US. Quality or work life has gone up 10 fold compared to the past.
my point of people being laid off while businesses are recording record profits just solidifies the point that just because production is up doesn’t mean people are working harder than ever. In fact it’s the exact opposite. Productivity is up because of automation. Not because workers are now working harder than ever. Lmao. Workers are being laid off in every major industry and being replaced by machines. That’s a fact.
first it’s fox. Now it’s cnn that’s the problem? Right. Whatever fits your narrative.
btw I’m a millennial. Not a gen z. there you go assuming shit again. So maybe take your own advice and look in the mirror.
Let me guess. You’re the hardest working person ever to be born. Lol
You arent even arguing the same thing anymore. I fail to see how improved working conditions, increasing automation, and outsourcing of american jobs to 3rd world countries is A) somehow gen Z's fault and B) makes gen Z in your words, "believe that should be able to do the bare minimum and have the luxuries handed to them." or are a "Bunch of Whiny ass Bitches" etc
So instead of going to the conclusion that laying off huge swaths of employees to outsource for 1/100th of the salary could have a large effect on profits. Or that the massive corporate inflation that is currently happening could affect that. Nope, its somehow that Americans don't work hard enough? That doesn't make sense?
If you can't see that both are just opposite sides of the coin Idk what to tell ya.
I never said you were Gen Z....and if I would have, I would have guessed gen X
Nope, not even close man. Lmao and I have never once ranted about not getting enough or whatever you're mad about? But I think you fail to realize discount/not realize a lot of the stuff that the younger generations are going through. Their job markets are getting trashed or automated, inflation is through the roof, housing prices are out of control, interest rates are through the roof and most wont be able to own a home if the trends continue. It really isnt shocking that the people entering the workforce to a super bleak future fail to see a brighter side to it.
If you do want me to rant about my life, I can sum it up pretty well. Me and the lady both have master's degrees, work in desirable and extremely stable fields 40-60 hours a week, did everything right and tidy and make over triple our states median household income...........we are just barely able to squeak by and buy a home that isn't falling apart at the seams. I don't think it's crazy that people making less than us feel like they got fucked over and are pissed? They did everything they were told to do and got good jobs. Most worked really hard etc. yet they aren't where they were told they would be. Meanwhile we all got to watch our parents live off of one salary with a stay-at-home mom, take multiple vacations a year, and retire at a younger age with pensions and benifits and a house worth a million dollars. (obviously generalizing but paraphrasing what I see people around my age (28) and younger upset about).
