I think they and us Melenials want to get paid the same amount adjusted for inflation that you lot got. But you don't understand inflation or economics and just think that the wage you paid your way with 30 years ago will cover it. Ignorance doesn't give you an excuse to complain either, mate.

@@Dracomandriuthus social security and Medicare were supposed to be locked away but of course those funds have been fleeced. And they are welfare because there are so many people getting those benefits who never paid in but there's one thing all the pie charts neglected to mention and that's the interest the government is paying. There's a difference between what's constitutional and what's not. The federal government printing 1 trillion dollars every 100 days is an act of treason in my book. Debt like this compromises our national security and the actual welfare of all the people. Military spending weather you like how it's been used or not is the real obligation the federal government has to the citizens. The rest should have been left up to the states. If you don't like how your state is operating you can leave it. That's what is happening with California. With a participation rate of around 60 percent that means 40 percent of the population is not working. Some may have retired early some are stay at home moms but the majority of those people are collecting a government check or working under the radar and not paying any taxes which the bottom 50 percentage doesn't do anyway.

I get paid for what I know and how hard I work., it’s a decent living. The kids we have now are almost too smart in a lazy way. They’ll wait to see if someone else will do the work so they don’t have to. Been working since I was 14. 34 now. I wish I would have started at one place when I was young and stayed there. I’d be halfway to retirement, if it’s even a thing anymore when I’m at retirement age! Started in the single digits for wages. Busted my ass, worked hard and stayed till the job was done. Learned new skills and knowledge related to my trade outside of work on my time and my money. Started at the bottom and I’m getting close to where I want to be.

Omg. This is so true for about 70% of Gen Z. I'm a hiring manager for a small mom and pop restaurant in the South. In 2 years of operation, we've raised employee wages from $10 to $15 an hour, give them the exact schedules they want, and give them free food and then some of them still make demands about how they "deserve more" after only a month of work. I worked in fast food as a manager for 12 years after high school and literally went through some hellish times and struggles making $10 for at least 8-10 of those years. I know that the cost of living has gone up in the last 12 years, but when I entered the work force as a teenager, minimum wage was literally $5.15 in my state. I worked at minimum wage for my first 3 years until I graduated high school and got that promotion. Many high schoolers these days don't know the meaning of hard work and just want to be paid $15 an hour to stand around and socialize. It's literally insane.

The uninformed one really hits. I’ve been a trainer on a grad program at my company for a few years now, and tbh I think a lot of the things are true of my generation in their first jobs… it just most of us had our first jobs aged 13-16 and so knew what was expected in a workplace by the time we got to graduate or career level. But the uninformed part… oh my word. I saw a report that said gen-z were actually most likely to get scammed online and I believe it. They might have grown up with the internet and KZitem and now live on TikTok but it has not made them smarter … like at all. They really have been trained to believe as gospel anything some influencer says for attention, it’s crazy. The confidence can be a good thing though. Not at first - constantly having kids come in who did an internship at a startup one time and think they instantly know how to do everything is frustrating as hell when reallly they’re there to learn, but once they actually start to get some skills and experience their life on TikTok has prepared them pretty well to push their goals…. Once they know what a sensible goal is

@onelonleyfarmer I'm guessing your career started around 1980. Using my location as an example, the minimum wage was 9.45 in 1980. That would be 37.75 today. The average rent was 400, or about 25% of income. Today, minimum wage is 15, and the average rent is 1800, or 75% of income. Hard work and commitment is not rewarded anymore. They suffer through 40-80 hour work weeks and still get less than what they need to survive. The job market is a complete sham with less than 5% of the job postings being legitimate. You say they get more than they are worth, but statistically, they should be starting at 37 dollars an hour so they could have the same opportunities as you. They stare at their phones because they are beaten and broken long before they enter the job market, they need an escape

If I can't support myself and others I.e my kids on my wages (like you used to be able to do) then those wages aren't worth it are they?
