[QUOTE="turkeyrun, post: 4337551, member: 27991"] I worked with some totally worthless Gen Z, some X and Y, too. On the other hand, there were good ones, too. The bad really stand out and I feel the good and the bad are a product of their raising. My oldest granddaughter (26) was a Special Ed teacher, got fed up with lack of pay and admin attitude, left for a job as a batista. 2 months and made store manager, over 3 that had been there much longer. 6 months later, made region manager over 3 stores. Much better pay than teacher, but she complains about Gen Z new hires being worse to deal with than the SpEd kids. She has no problem firing them, if they don't adjust to training. Oldest grandson (25) went to work at a steel roofing company. The crew was mostly Gen Y. The crew lead retired 7 months later and put him as lead. He has said many times, they are always a couple short because the new hires whine about hard it is and don't show up the next day. Next granddaughter graduated last May as a pediatric RN and works at the hospital maternity ward. The only 2 of 12 grandkids (not?) working are the 2 youngest, in Jr High. Granddaughter just won Gold at Jr Nationals Gymnastics (she works hard) Grandson cuts, bales, hauls hay for neighbor. Proud of them all. [/QUOTE]
