Promise of what? I think the major change with millennials and gen z is that we see through the dogmatism that is corporate culture. Even if the promise was that of the “American dream” 50 years ago it’s quite clearly not worth it to sacrifice your youth and 1/3 of your life (another third being sleep) to afford to sit around in a house and squeeze in stagnant social obligations for the rest of your life.
Life is what you make of it, and familial loyalty to a company that doesn’t care about me just doesn’t cut it.
A corporate ‘promise’ is a verbal unenforceable contract. What do you even do with the promise of a habitual liar?
A house? In this economy?
A tent in the designated homelessness zone is more apt
A homeless zone? In this society?
Hmm yeah you’re right. I guess I will just scuttle around the sewers on all fours and eat trash
You can order pizza according to the cartoons I grew up watching. It didn’t ever cover how the teenage turtles and their rat mentor made money. Try to find a reporter in a jumpsuit she might be able to help.
Surely you overestimate their chances.
Too bad the Force isn’t with us.
Some of us gen x saw this in high school but were surrounded by angry boomers who treated us like we were idiots.
Then don’t work at a corporation. There are plenty of startups / small businesses out there who are in dire need of talented people.
Start ups are still corps bud.
The single most toxic place to work is a startup. The people who make it there tend to be entitled narcissists.
