At a retail business based in New York, managers were distressed to encounter young employees who wanted paid time off when coping with anxiety or period cramps. At a supplement company, a Gen Z worker questioned why she would be expected to clock in for a standard eight-hour day when she might get through her to-do list by the afternoon. At a biotech venture, entry-level staff members delegated tasks to the founder. And spanning sectors and start-ups, the youngest members of the work force have demanded what they see as a long overdue shift away from corporate neutrality toward a more open expression of values, whether through executives displaying their pronouns on Slack or putting out statements in support of the protests for Black Lives Matter.

    This critique of the Boomers at least has a grain of material basis to it, unlike the slop they print in the media about Millenials ruining the housing market by buying too many lattes. It still lets the real criminals off the hook though. Flogging the Boomers won't put Bezos's head on a pike.

      No it won't and we can't forget that there's poor boomers too, like my mom for example. It's just as a whole generational class, boomers by and large are absolute scumbags will to sell their own children up the river.
