    In true boomer fashion. They quit en masse, and then flip the script and blame work shortages on the younger generation not wanting to work.

    Boomers provided ways for youngsters to have all their toys and creature comforts. And debt. Thank you very much, now get your ass's back to work and support my social security!

    I work in recruiting. Millennials and gen xers are refusing work. Unlike ever before.

    Maybe in the industry you work with? We just had 30 applicants for our job listing.

    Someone we just hired had 6 years of experience. They said our offer was 40% higher than what they were making. Maybe that's why we are getting applicants. Other folks aren't paying well enough. Most of our applicants have been milennials or gen xers the last few recruitments.
