And at work
- the endless chase for the mirage that is wlb
- if anything isn't per their expectation, its toxic
Their definition of toxic is anything that pushes then even a bit
I don't know why prioritising WLB is seen as a bad thing? I mean c'mon I'm not your slave. You want results? Sure I'll give that to you, but don't expect me to give 16 hours of my day to you in the name of "learning" you are paying for work that's it if I'd be interested in learning I'm good enough to speak for myself and what I genuinely wanna learn, also idgaf about companies vision, idk why they expect you to treat the company like a family only to randomly drop you off on a good sunny day by giving financial BS reason.
Yeah. GenZ shud run after cars, homes, marriage, kids, parampara, Pratishtha, Anushasan etc
Insta is such cliche, they shud rather be on Orkut!
Also OP @RuralBough For a FY student, I wud suggest you to have opinions but be flexible to change. I despised my generation, my batchmates when I was first exposed to hostel life during my FY and used to feel very strongly repulsed by some people. It took me a long time to realize that I was getting distanced and socially isolated in most groups, because the repulsion became mutual.
People come from varied backgrounds, experiences, social-economic-financial strata. This shapes their choices and it is hard to agree on a philosophy.
An example from my life: I was very anti-reservation and kinda judged people who had gotten admissions due to their caste. Some stories I heard have shook me and months later, my views turned around 180.
Absolutely people are free to have choices and that's why I don't tell anyone to change but I was worried about the endless competition amongst each other . It's not that this competition was not there earlier but now it has become way more common due to social media .
I'm a GenZ so I'll answer this.
Yes, we race for an iPhone and dance at nightclubs. You also raced for the best car, biggest apartment, expensive clothes, large weddings. I can't see what your problem is?
If you want to go home, watch Arnab Goswami, crib about the world and sleep. Then go for it. We respect your choices, but we don't live by them. We try to find happiness in the little things (including the sky).
Yes we want to go to pretty cafes, capture pretty skies. At least we try to appreciate beauty - no matter what the motive.
Older generations have also run behind validation and likes on FB/Twitter. Don't deny it, we all know.
GenZ also openly talks about how our mental health is shit and we call out things which the older generations just accepted as 'tradition' or 'aisa hi hota hai'. (think women in traditional household roles, running after only salary, marriage and kids, jobs where you're not treated with basic human dignity).
You can dislike us for our differences, but GenZ will be the ones who will decide the fate of Climate Change, Mental Wellbring and Tech. We are the future and we're here to stay. Make space.
Lol. While I agree that you are the future but I doubt any issues will be solved. Social media really screwed over people. Most will be caught in that swamp and die. The very few who make it out they will be pretty good. But the majority wont make it.
You're right. Most of us are screwed mentally, but I think we'll find a way to fix/adapt from climate change. It's either that or humans don't survive lol
When I watch The Social Dilemma or such content, it laments me to see how upcoming generation is becoming slave to social media, OTT and influencers. It's harrowing to see how kids and even adults these days get hooked to reels and shorts to no end. 10 year old daughter of my cousin creates at least 2 vanity reels everyday (clothing, food, make up) 🤮 . I feel it's high time that govt should start regulating these to avert an otherwise likely catastrophe. The other day I heard Mrs. Palki Sharma on a podcast saying that govt can't decide what kind of content people like to consume, rather it's the joint accountability of consumer and creators. . But I strongly believe that govt can (of course they can legally) and should (morally) strictly regulate these. I mean everyone is bound to pay taxes, obey traffic rules etc. You can't be like "no i want to make out with my partner in public so deal with it". No. There are regulations in place to keep together the fabric of society and content should be subject to same laws. (We've already had film censor board for ages) . Soft porn, random housewife shit, and idiot romance and cool stuff popular amongst teens should be absolutely banned (or at least confined to few minutes per day like they've done with TikTok in China). And then fake news circulating over WhatsApp should be curbed. Next up all anti India elements should be starved off. . Yes call me authoritarian but I stand for an intelligent, responsible and moral society.
