    Remember the meme about everyone could have a 32 hour work week and three-day weekends (and a productivity boost) but the billionaires are opposed?

    Well everyone could have post-scarcity communism but the billionaires are opposed.

    graduating is not daunting. not by any stretch. in fact, that’s the point where life peaks. everything after is a steep downhill ride.

    yes, ai adoption has turned that downhill run into a cliff. but if someone thinks graduation is even remotely daunting, then they would struggle even in the most non-ai of worlds.

    Unpopular opinion: Younger hires are garbage workers. Entitled. Cannot accept criticism. Quit the moment things get too hard. Incompetent. Argumentative with supervisors. On phones too much. And late all of the damned time.

    Now add shitty workers with CEO’s cutting billionaires and AI and yep, job market sucks.

      I think the younger generation might be the first one that can’t buy into the bullshit society sells you at the labor market.

        And that’s why the younger generation is overwhelmingly underemployed and overwhelmingly voted for Trump further supporting my belief in their lack of quality judgement.

      It reeks of shitty boss. I’ve heard the same bullshit from old folks 20 years ago that couldn’t use their computers to save their live.

      When everyone’s an asshole, the common factor is you.
