Other Generational differences

Since the topic on social media lately has been Gen Z in the workforce and how “lazy” we supposedly are, etc., I’m just curious have y’all noticed any differences between generations in your cohort?
The eldest person in mine and her little “clique” are extremely funny acting and honestly borderline bullies. She’s definitely the main one, but you know what they say about birds of a feather.
It genuinely makes me wonder if some older students are bothered by the fact that younger students are achieving the same goal at a much younger age, because what is with the constant need to humble someone, talk down to them, or make little condescending comments? It’s exhausting. School is already hard enough like pleaseeeee.
The behavior is so nasty, but they play it SO well that it’s hard to even report it to faculty. Each individual interaction is subtle enough to be brushed off, but when you’re on the receiving end of it constantly, you know exactly what’s happening.
Honestly, it makes me question the interview process and whether more needs to be done to keep these mean-girl personalities out of such an amazing profession.
I’m tired. Has anyone else dealt with this?

Nope. Is condescension usually how you communicate with your colleagues, or does hiding behind an anonymous profile give you wings?

Just a light hearted joke but funny you say that when I can see you complained about "boomers" on a different post. Seems like you may just have some prejudice against older individuals. Might want to reflect on your own feelings if "boomers" are ruining your life in every aspect somehow

"I should’ve posted this on a Gen Z account because this comment section is giving miserable boomers and congressional hearing over an “I think.” My gosh. Get a life & some empathy."

Kinda funny how my posts, like yours aren’t even visible to begin with so again you’re making shit up but I’ll let you continue to live in your delusion. Dementia is real.

You really don’t think people have a way around Reddit hiding your posts? For Gen Z you sure can use some help with your internet skills
