Gen Z can’t work alongside people with different views because they ‘haven’t got the skills to disagree’ says British TV boss
  • I'm a millennial but this reminds me of when I first got into the work force and was stuck in an office full of boomers with me being the youngest. I remember the boss would take turns taking shots at different people during meetings, making insensitive racial jokes about people. I eventually got tired of doing the uncomfortable fake laugh so I just sat there stone faced during his jokes. He halted the entire meeting to a stop to ask me why I wasn't laughing. This is the extent to which office culture must be obeyed and how insecure they get when you don't go along with it. It's so pathetic.

  • I would like to enjoy Zelda BOTW but …
  • I wanted to like this game but the story was just so uninteresting to me that I had to put it down. I know not everyone is like me but as someone who adored the stories in oot and majoras mask, I couldn't do it man.

  • I have no idea what I'm doing
  • As I've grown up and learned more about the world, I've learned that it's not so much that no one knows what they're doing, but more that most people don't have clarity about why we do what we do. We're disconnected from our work and we don't receive it's benefits personally. Instead we exchange it for currency, so we don't know if we've "hit the mark" or not. Is my work accomplishing it's intended purpose? Who the hell knows. I just try to do this thing and keep my boss/teacher happy. We live in a hyper real world where the appearance of accomplishment is a standin for the real thing, so it's like we're throwing darts blindfolded at a target. And don't get me wrong, we might be doing everything correctly and benefiting the world, but at the end of the day what we see is not it's benefits, but it's supposed equivalent currency. We're all going through the motions and just hoping it's "right", and that can feel indistinguishable from "I don't know what I'm doing"

  • Honestly, not that great. In Ontario, health care has been heavily affected by Doug Ford's Bill 124, which capped nurse's wages at 1% a year for 3 years, causing horribly long wait times and understaffing at hospitals

    I don't really care about upvote/downvote count, it would be nice if there was a toggle to hide it completely

    What do office middle managers even do?

    At our weekly stand up my boss always says he's working on "HR stuff". I only ever see or hear from him in team meetings. Wtf do these people even do that justifies their high salaries?

    Setting "personal goals" at work is such bullshit

    Now on top of my workload, which is already insane, I'm expected to set and meet personal goals by some arbitrary deadline? This shit is so condescending. I'm an adult, being paid to exchange my time and work for a salary. I don't need to be treated like a child and made to complete these homework assignments to prove my growth within the company. Anyone else dealing with this shit right now?
