Gen Z person refuses to work at 8 am, his boss is mad.

I'm sorry but Gen Z is just smarter, they know enough about corrupt employers that they won't be push overs as everything is freely available to look up. That's the issue here when employers get all hurt want to complain on live TV, talk about cringe.

The way this guy handled his irresponsible employer was good though, I liked his response. If it's a 9 am start day, it's 9 am, if it's 8 am it's 8 am. As a person who is recently looking for a job, I can't tell people how much businesses are lying about everything literally. It should be illegal with how much they lie 🤥 honestly.

People are tired of the work force like Gen Z, they know their worth. They are over worked, underpaid and they know this.

We can talk all day about how we're working harder because the system is screwing us over and because of corruption we now gotta work 8 to 16 hours, six days a week almost to make ends meet, when it wasn't that much before but that's not the point.

The point is that Gen Z knows their worth and is not having it, so good on them.

8 am is way to late to go to work. I did 6 am for many years. Now the last 4 have been 4 am.

@Jonjdw weird flex but okay.

@Jonjdw 8 AM is standard here, which is a problem because EVRYBODY, including kids, commutes 7 AM - 8 AM which is the hell on the roads and in public transport. 8 AM is good time during the summer, it's too early in winter though.

@LordShadowfire Indeed lmao, it's like the old folks here who'll flex about not having lawnmowers in their era

@Elessar Weird Al Yankovic made the perfect parody of these people in the 90s.

@CrazyMusicLover I don’t think there is a standard where I am. 4 am was not by choice.

@LordShadowfire it is the time my work gave me. It was not always like that I was second shift for 4 years. Been there 22 years now. My department went from 6 am to 4 am. But nice to be done at work at 12:30 pm. When others are on lunch.

@Jonjdw I guess there aren't many jobs that would require such weird time though.

@Jonjdw I don't think the start time really matters, it's just that businesses have unrealistic expectations regarding employees. It's shown that employers will discriminate against people who have kids for the reason that work knows kids come first.

If they had it their way and let's say there were no laws, you'd find a much different story regarding labor.

Like in countries without labor laws, people live in the factories they work. There was a 12 year old boy who was Muslim and worked in a factory for 12 hours a day to support his family and he ended up getting beaten to death by some of the adult workers there.

Wish I could remember who that was, honestly I read about it by looking up a company I didn't know and found that story years back related to that company.

So if work has it their way, we'd all be chained literally. That's not even an exaggeration, you see it in countries with no labor laws so they try to get away with as much as possible.

Lying about wages, lying about hours, etc is just really what people know and are tired of
