Gig-working millennial here. I think a key issue behind work dissatisfaction is that we are always chasing after the “standard of success” from the generation before us. We saw our parents punching the clock 9-5 for years on end. It worked for a period of time, but it is increasingly clear that this modern world demands an adjusted approach to achieve the same standard of living we were encouraged to obtain. Our parents/grandparents’ generation held vastly different jobs over the course of a lifetime (The Great Depression; WWII, Introduction to the Internet, etc.). I believe each generation needs to give themselves permission to seek out what works for their unique circumstances. Our gig work may be discounted by hurtful comments like, “When are you going to get a real job?” Look, it’s as real and honest as the factory jobs or farm work our family members once held, and that’s something we should be proud of. ❤

A huge part of the problem is back in the day employers used to take a chance on you. Now they won't. They used to take you and let you work your way up. Now they want years of experience for a entry level job. Or a college education for a entry level job. In America it's worse because in the past my grandfather was a custodian and got full benefits like health care and retirement. That doesn't exist anymore. Also now alot of employers will make ghost job listings just to get state grants and tax returns. Because if they are actively looking to fill jobs they get more benefits. They don't have to prove anything. When I was 18 I put in hundreds of applications and not a single call back. I was trying to get basic jobs like fast food. Not even a single call even saying sorry. I saw what my mom went through with college debt and I don't want that. She was about 90k in debt and worked 50+ hours a week. She was working with disabled adults and when she came home she was emotionally exhausted and wasn't able to be the best parent. She only made 12-15k a year. We struggled so hard. Now also a huge hurtle is mostly everything is online. You don't turn your application into a person you do it all online..

Networking is something everyone needs to be taught to do - for so many work opportunities, it's not what you know but who knows you that counts. Also, there can be ways to pursue your passion that might not exactly match your dreams but could be a step on the road to achieving them. No-one should be expected to abandon the prospect of a life that brings them joy - but often it's necessary to start small and build from there.

I'm born in 92 and I paid in full for all of my qualifications. They're even subsidised now especially post Covid. Doesn't matter what industry you want to work in, all you have to do is commit.

The days where you worked your way up with internal and external training in an organization, now they seek tertiary qualifications for it lol.....insanity! At the end of the day you hire people based on abilities , experience and characteristics. It's the people and culture that makes or breaks. If you want teritary then that would suit professions like Drs, engineers, lawyers, accountants, nurses etc, not a sales or service job. You can put any fancy title to it, like business development, account manager, associate, global sales director etc..... you're just a sales person thats it, no degree needed! Dont start me on key words and cover letters, I hired people based on merits, abilities, their attitude and character,. I'd only be interested in a degree if its required for the role/profession, the rest is trained, you can teach anyone if they're interested and capable.

What global economic slowdown? Everywhere in the midwest of USA is hiring. To be blunt, the old people who didn't die during the pandemic, retired. The young generation doesn't seem to want to work 60, 50 or even 40 hours per week. Or at multiple jobs. So three or four hires are needed to replace those two people. Since employers are desperate, the wages go up and those worker less now make more than those just a few years ago working a lot more.

60 minutes - please stop calling Gen Z, Gen Y! "Gen Y is the generation born after 1976" - what?! No they are not...There are 3-4 entire generations that you are skipping - Gen X, Millennials/Gen Y and then Gen Z. The generations cover a 10-15 approx period, and i'm sorry but it is such a cringey baby boomer stereotype to think anyone that is 'young' is Gen Y. For the record, Millennials/Gen Y came of age in the MILLENNIAM i.e. we were teenagers in the 2000s - that means no one under the age of 25 is Gen Y. Gen Y is typically late 20s to late 30s now - that means I bet when you 'oldies' go and see almost any working professional, parents with young children - they're probably Gen Y. Also for the record, 'Gen Y has never known economic recession' is completely wrong. Genuine Gen Yers actually went through two global economic collapses before the age of 30. First there was the GFC when we were all graduating from uni - and unlike Baby Boomers - that meant graduate jobs collapsed and almost none of us could get a job in the professional services area post-university - then we had COVID when we were barely in our thirties. Not to also mention Baby Boomers got to enter adulthood with no university debt, an abundance of graduate roles to go into and cheap housing - so any Millennial who managed to buy a home in this time period (and I am one of them) likely worked and saved 10 x harder than the average Baby Boomer.
