Are you ready for the next phase? We would need a plan and organize to change the status quo. The in charge generation (boomer) isn't going to stop unless we do something. I work at a job that I can get everything I need done in one hour because I am more efficient. It would take most people about 5. And now I must stay at my desk and play solitaire for the other 7 hours. While my boomer boss is never here and can do whatever. I get that he is the boss. But if your employee can take care of stuff. The employee should have a life as well. It's time guys. We need a general union or something. What are your thoughts.
I came of age in the early 2000s. I suffered during the bad years under Bush where business tried to expand profitability in a no growth environment through short termism and downward pressure on wages.

Offer a slice of pizza from that pizza party as part payment of your rent, a clipart laden letter of thanks to your mechanic, trite motivational posters to the tax department.
