    Yes, let’s treat these people who have lost all hope for the future like bratty children, I’m sure that will work.

    Fuck these articles.

    To any gen Z reading this, don’t fall for the shaming. They did the same shit to us Millennials and all it did was make us work for nothing and burn out. Your boss just wants more production and profit at the cost of your body and mind.

    You are worth more than what they’re offering. You deserve a future.

      I fully support NEETism if that’s what you call it. I’m a Zillennial or whatever the fuck and I’ve worked my entire adult life in the trades. FUCK WORK. There are no jobs that pay enough, the hours are long, and no one gives a fuck about you. Never feel bad for not having a job, you deserve to live however you want. If I was born even a few years later than I was I’d be a fuckin NEET too. There is no incentive AT ALL to do ANYTHING it’s crazy to think people wouldn’t act this way.

        Literally had a bastard who is my “friend” give me the I should flip hamburgers and make people smile line. I’ve flipped hamburgers it’s hard work (not even in the bad way) but mother fuckers rarely smile at you. They just complain about you forgoting their pickles or that the burger is slightly over done or some dumb shit…

      I’m a millennial with a PhD and more disillusionment than ever. I hope that gen z keeps fighting the good fight, and I’ll help them wherever I can. It can only make my life better.
