75% of employers say Gen Z isn't just lazy, they're unemployable, not a meme, that's real data. 93% ghosted job interviews. 87% didn't show up on day one. But here's the twist. What if Gen Z isn't broken? What if the system is? In this video, we're putting Gen Z, Millennials, and Gen X head-to-head to find out who's really the problem and why it might not be who you think. To really understand why Gen Z works so differently, we need to look at who came before them. The original 9 to5 warriors. Before we had quiet quitting and job hopping, we had generation X, the silent grinders. Born between 1965 and 1980, Gen X came of age during the rise of corporate America and they adapted fast. Their work mantra, put your head down, don't complain, and maybe you'll get a pension. They didn't have LinkedIn. They had fax machines. And networking meant bowling with your boss. And sure, it wasn't glamorous, but it worked. Gen X built careers on discipline, hierarchy, and a shut up and work attitude. If Gen X were the rule followers, millennials were the dreamers. That the economy woke up real fast. Born between 1981 and 1996, they were told, "Go to college, chase your passion, and success will follow." Spoiler alert, it didn't. Instead, they graduated into the 2008 financial meltdown with a shiny degree in one hand and a $30,000 debt in the other. So, when millennials talk about work life balance, it's less about yoga at lunch and more about I have three jobs and a side hustle. Now, meet Gen Z, the generation that thinks fax machines are ancient relics and the idea of working your way up sounds like a scam. These are the people who never knew a world without smartphones, Uber or Tik Tok. They were raised on 15-second videos and now they're supposed to stay awake during 90-minute PowerPoint meetings. Jenzi never burned cities. Never waited for dialup internet. But what they do know is this. Burnout, layoffs, mental health crisis, and student debt. So maybe it's not surprising that 50% of them say they'd rather be jobless than miserable. Maybe they're not rejecting work. Maybe they're just rejecting our idea of what work should be. Gen Z is getting roasted online, rejected by employers, and labeled entitled. But what if they're not entitled? They're just trying to survive. If you think Gen Z has it easy, buckle up. Because when you stack up the numbers, it turns out Gen Z was born into the worst economic setup in modern history. Gen X bought homes when the price to income ratio was just 2.9. Millennials faced 4.4. Gen Z try 5.6, the highest it's ever been. In the 1980s, most students graduated with little to no debt. College cost a fraction of what it does today. Millennials graduated with $30,000 in loans. Gen Z. They're starting careers. $38,000 in the red. Still think they're fragile? Or maybe they're the first to say this isn't working and I'm not pretending it is.

Jenzi didn't just challenge the rules, they flipped the whole table. And guess who's not happy about it? Their bosses. In interviews, managers call them highmaintenance, uncoachable, and soft. A study shows 74% of employers say Gen Z is harder to work with than any previous generation. But here's the twist. Gen Z isn't trying to be difficult. They just don't buy the suffer now, succeed later story. They'll ask why in meetings, reject unpaid overtime, and call out toxic boxes out loud online, and sometimes in real time. For employers raised in hustle culture, this feels like rebellion. For Jenzi, it's just setting boundaries. It's not a war on work. It's a demand for respect. Imagine this. Jenz isn't just part of the workforce. They're calling the shots. The 40-hour week out. 4 day week with flexible hours standard. Mandatory overtime replaced by mandatory boundaries. Emails at midnight. If you send one, expect to reply next Tuesday. Meetings only if there's a clear agenda and an actual point. And yes, that's revolutionary. Old school leaders call it laziness, but maybe it's just sanity. If this sounds radical, maybe you're just getting old. Time to change. Start with a $7 Armond milk latte and see where it takes you. So, after all that, who's really the problem? Is it Gen Z with their job hopping, boundary setting, and mental health days? Is it millennials, the burnout optimists who followed the rules and still got crushed by dead and disappointment? Or is it Gen X who built the system and now say, "Why can't the kids just tough it out like we did?" The truth, everyone's playing the same game, but the rules have changed. Gen Z isn't lazy. They're just the first to say out loud, "This system doesn't work for us." And maybe that's not a weakness. Maybe that's what change looks like.
