Before we judge Gen Z harshly for their take on the grind of work, as a Boomer I’m here to remind you that Dolly wrote the same message over 40 years ago in “9 to 5”:
“Workin' 9 to 5
What a way to make livin'
Barely gettin' by
It's all takin' and no givin'
They just use your mind
And you never get the credit
It's enough to drive you
Crazy if you let it”

Very few of us are judging them. We all feel the same way. My heart breaks for that girl. I remember when i was that pretty. Now I’m just tired and old. They steal your soul, one stressful day at a time.
They have so completely stripped from the system any guise of legitimacy that even their ingenious techniques for deluding the youth are now inept.
Strangely, social media has also helped challenge the delusion. In the early days, everyone used it to foster an illusion of contentedness in life, essentially curating a personal image. Now, it is common to find tearful pleas and angry rants that show each of us that our own resentment is not exceptional.
All that remains is for workers to join in solidarity by a common wish to smash the entire system through our shared struggle.

I’m also not judging, I’m more ashamed that I didn’t feel the same way at her age.
