>"I mean young engineers in my company get paid nicely in comparison to their older peers." Yeah, because they're 10% of Gen Z (and I'm part of that 10% Gen Z)

>"I mean young engineers in my company get paid nicely in comparison to their older peers." Yeah, because they're 10% of Gen Z (and I'm part of that 10% Gen Z). Most of my peers, my former classmates, and friends are struggling to make ends meet in an increasingly antagonistic status quo to present-day starters, the likes of which are not comparable to any other contemporary time - both through anecdotes and data - excluding 1971-73, and that was quickly rectified (and you STILL have people who joined the workforce in those years complaining about it 50 years later). And as for kids, they can't afford them. Young engineers probably can, old news - but that's not the bulk of the generation. If you want a functioning society, you must account for options and outcomes for ALL sectors of the bell-curve. Not just people from the sectors you associate with. This comment screams myopia and a lack of perspective, and an obvious lack of interest in trying to amend either.
