Gen Z is coming into the workforce and — in the grand tradition of what Millennials cringe-ily called “adulting” — they’re complaining about how much easier older generations have had it financially.

    An important point is that it’s only a head start. Once you are actually working and have experience the degree doesn’t matter unless it’s required by the company or for government jobs. Plenty of people without degrees do very well for themselves. They don’t accept that working as a barista or at a gas station is a career and seek out other options.

        Coffee and gas is already outrageously expensive.
