[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm really not impressed with the recent grads.  They seem to have had their hands held a little too firmly throughout their 'academic' careers and seem to expect I continue to do so as their boss, for tasks they should really start to figure out how to own themselves.  No, I do not want to talk to you every hour to give you feedback as if the point of work was to give you an A+ and a smile at the end.  These kids have never failed at anything, apparently, and don't seem to want to do so now.  That's a shame.[/quote]

You are bad at your job. It’s your job to communicate expectations clearly. [/quote]

Nah, previous poster is right.  Gen Z is a product of massive grade inflation, helicopter parenting, instant gratification, and never having any setbacks in life. Teachers were afraid to give them C, D, and Fs they probably deserved. They all think they're straight A students who are the smartest in the room when in reality they're probably C- grade level grads once you subtract their huge grade inflation out.

Hell, they've never even really had to tough out a single major economic recession yet in their professional working life.  They're going to fold like tacos once a real economic S storm happens.

So you're saying it's the fault of older generations?  I agree with you.  The older generations did a disservice to ourselves and Gen Z.  But it's just like us to place the blame anywhere else. [/quote]
