Gen Z Employees Stay Getting Fired from Jobs

You're speaking facts.. We hired 4 gen z college grads. There is only 1 left because they do not know how to communicate professionally, especially verbally. I asked one of them to present their update to the change control board and they lost their damn mind... literally had a panic attack and left the meeting. You want them to run a meeting? Forget it... I'm baffled by it all to be honest.

Why would we be screaming and yelling at work? Obviously we’re going to act differently depending on where we are. Also, gen X were helicopter parents and overbearing. That coupled with the fact that we were born during the 2000s when the internet was taking off and grew up online had a profound effect on our social development. Millennials and gen X tend to make their profession their entire identity, while for gen Z a job is a means to an end and that’s it. I’m not at work to be buddy buddy with people, I’m there to do my job proficiently and efficiently so I can get a paycheck.

I think I can shed some light on the socialization issue. I can't speak for everyone but for me its the fear of having a conversation turning awkward. When speaking to a stranger you don't know how they're going to react and some could also be wary of new people in fear of being judged. It's no secret the workplace has changed quite a bit especially in the realm of technology but I think one of the things the workplace lacks is when it comes to training because not every employer especially if the job is entry level isn't going to show you how their systems work but they expect you know the work right off the bat. This isn't taking into account the qualifications some are asking for. Many of the things you hear about Gen Z are similar complaints that were said about the Millennials when they were our age. In my opinion it feels disingenuous to put an entire generation in a box and assume they're all lazy. The same could be said about Boomers and Tech literacy.

I think its just younger workers in general, not just gen z. You cant tell me millennials and gen x were just perfect workers right out of high school and college.

our work force has been crumbling with lazy efforts from the higher ups and now people are waking up

I would quit in a hot minute. However, I was never lazy. Because I knew I was worth more than the BS you giving out. I was taught eye contact by everyone in my community as a kid. If I didn’t look at my neighbor. They corrected me. If I was at a store. The store person would remind me. You don’t have that anymore. “Don’t talk to my kid..”. So the ability to learn from real world experience is gone. Sad.

write off young people and then complain when things go south down the line, the young people are the future and screwing them just screws old and grey you

Gen Z thinks their employment is about them and their fulfillment....their life satisfaction. Elder millennials and older realize, the company is literally buying your time/production and you have to produce to keep your job. The idea of employment is considered 'fascism' by zoomers and younger millennials.

Gen z is the offspring of gen x.... 👀

Everything you said in this video is 100% truth sir. They lack communication skills very much.

This video was fascinating because I have noticed it too at my work. Its either those Gen X people who refuse to apply themselves or its old people who also refuse to to apply themselves. Its like there is a sweet spot of people I talk to who have "that dog in them" so to speak.

Okay so I don't blame gen z for getting fired or quitting....it's like we work our butts off but for what....rents sky high food is outrageous....it's frustrating

It is getting worst, all complaining about same stuff over and over again. But no work being done.

Lack of eye contact, meek; A larger amount of Gen Z workers are autistic. That's what the issue is; workplaces do *not* like having to deal with autism.

Work hard and be proud of what you do. Also be nice to everyone at work even if you have to fake it.

I think it's because they're smarter than the rest of us and figured out that working a job 9:00 to 5:00 is a scam and that you can't build a future doing it.

Everybody is on the spectrum - what a croc...

I'm sorry to say this and I know I'll catch hell for what must be said, but... CHILDREN ARE NO LONGER ARE FUTURE! NOT ANYMORE!! THE FUTURE BELONGS TO A.I AND AUTOMATION!!! We are rapidly approaching an automated, digital society of a 21st century New Machine Age. As the workplace becomes more streamlined and mechanized. To the point where there won't be as great a need for a large workforce as in ages past. With the aid of A.I. automated systems, we'd only need a tiny fraction of the current workforce to keep society going. As whatever amount of new jobs created in that time period won't ever offset the amount destroyed. I truly believe this will be far more horrific than the loss of manufacturing and industrial jobs decades ago. It will be become painfully obvious that educating a large population will be seen as a massive waste of resources. As most will graduate to a lifetime of brutal, crippling technological unemployment. What I eventually see happening is... Cities and states will close public schools en'masse beginning in the early 2030s. Whatever schools left open will have a more streamlined curriculum and reduced to the 7th grade. Afterwards, if parents want to continue their children's education. They will either pay tuition for the child(ren) to attend high school (similar to Japan and S. Korea) or... Enroll their kid(s) in a company training program and hope for the best. As only a select few will be picked for whatever open positions at the time. Sadly, most will be left behind in the shadow of technological unemployment and no... I don't ever see any form of UBI ever implemented in our lifetime. That's just copium for those unwilling to see the coming reality. Also, it would be far cheaper to let the masses fend for themselves. It has come to the point where I and countless others would prefer dealing with properly calibrated machines and automated systems as opposed to an incompetent workforce.

You sound very bitter. I agree Gen Z is full of entitlement but the way you complained for 20 mins is not a good look for you

From an educator to another. I do think your view towards education, especially college education is limited. After all we need more highly qualifed professors, so some people are meant to remain the field of education. The problem is that for the sake of our society we need a balance of workforce training as well as academic training. After all the innovations that you train others in come from those career academics. With all respect you misunderstand education at the higher education level. Often times professors are looking to find those who will continue to the work to generate new knowledge and insights. Should there be a balance, yes. I also am in a similar part of higher education like you are, but I am trying to help while also informing others we need to train people to be both good employees and good knowledgeable citizens. In America especially where the literacy both regular and political literacy is barely at a 7th grade level. So we can't just focus on job skills and workforce related skills, we also need them to work on their civics skills too.

Next: why bad employees are good for employers!

Bro how were you born in 1984 but went to college in 1998? You would have graduated high school 2002.

Is that because zoomers are phone junkies?

This is cyclical, might as well watch my car wheels spin than hear this nonsense about how bad a generation is

old hating dude washed up smh
