Opinion | A Rude Awakening Is Ahead for Young Employees
www.wsj.com
A recession will hand the bargaining power to their bosses.

Breaking news, there's this hot new trend in financial journalism called "zombie writing."

When it's a slow news day, the author writes about something that's literally always been the case and then adds "Millennials are doing X and that's new and scary".

Symptoms of "zombie writing" can include drooling, extreme fatigue, and a lack of financial income.

    Yeah, it came up in my Android "recommended" feed and I don't know why I clicked on it, lol. Instant blood pressure raising.

      It's ridiculous to get this angry at some random suit with an opinion piece, but I'm thoroughly pissed off right now.

        it's entirely reasonable to get this angry at this guy for writing this article. the trouble is he is legion and one person can't maintain the emotional energy required to be angry with all of them individually

      I browse the headlines of my recommended feed explicitly as a "What does :porky-happy: want me to be thinking about today?"
