A Generation Z job applicant asked the Millennial interviewer why an 8-hour presence is required if the work could be accomplished in less than 8 hours. Another Generation Z individual informed her Millennial boss that she would not be coming in due to anxiety and cramps. A third Generation Z employee assigned a tasker to a Millennial boss.<\/p>\n

From The Daily Mail:<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Generation Z workers are terrifying their millennial bosses with a series of woke and entitled demands, including that their companies support BLM, provide paid time off for ‘anxiety’ and telling the CEOs to do the assignments themselves.<\/p>\n

These newest additions to the workforce have left many of their not-much-older supervisors shaking their heads or infuriated before caving in to avoid social media shaming by the web-savvy ‘dot-com kids.’<\/p>\n

‘When I was entering the workforce I would not have delegated to my boss. Gen Z doesn’t hesitate to do that,’ said Polly Rodriguez, 34, the CEO of sexual wellness company Unbound, one of many CEOs who aired their grievances to the New York Times.<\/p>\n

‘Some young former employees are much more willing to burn bridges.<\/p>\n

‘To me it’s shortsighted. Is it worth the social clout of getting gratification on social media but then trashing someone who could continue to help you professionally?’<\/p>\n

By 2025, members of Generation Z – those born between 1997 and 2021 – will make up 27 percent of the global workforce, predicts the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development.<\/p>\n

Rodriguez revealed one incident when her co-founder contacted her to say a younger social media manager had called on a Saturday to demand to know how the vibrator start-up would be supporting Black Lives Matter.<\/p>\n

The Gen Zer reached out to her bosses in June 2020, days after George Floyd was murdered. Both bosses were surprised by the call on a non-work day, assuming a staff member would only get in touch on the weekend in an emergency.<\/p>\n

Still, the fear of bad publicity from web-savvy workers led Unbound to hire a diversity, equity and inclusion officer to train staff, as well as launching a fundraiser for a group that supports sex workers of color.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
