Woman's 'Gen Z rude and difficult to work with' post sparks debate

A woman’s post on Gen Z’s workplace behaviour has sparked a debate on social media after she said that young employees are “rude” and “difficult to work with”. She further quoted a sentiment from a colleague trying to bridge generational gaps, who said: “They expect everyone to make space for and care about their feelings, but if you ask them to care about anyone else’s, it’s too much work for them, and they lash out.” The post opened the floodgates for discussion, with users chiming in from all sides. Don’t know how to behave with other colleagues could be a personal opinion, or is this a trend?” Another user added, “I can say the same for boomers and millennials who don't want to pay their employees fairly, have no life of their own, want everyone to slog at work, and are mostly intolerant of diversity and yes, they generalise. The new generation wants work-life balance and the old folks hate it and don't want anyone to question anything.” A section of the internet was less forgiving as users also called out what they perceived as a sense of entitlement in Gen Z. I guess it is based on the Covid era when they saw people established in their careers getting paid for work from home while spending their time making Dalgona coffees,” a user said.
