“I was so upset and disappointed in myself because growing up, I was told that if I get an education, if I go to college, then I’ll be successful,” Santos told Business Insider—and she’s not the first Gen Zer to complain about feeling tricked into pursuing further education.
Just last month, 27-year-old Robbie Scott similarly went viral on TikTok for insisting that Gen Z isn’t any less willing to work than generations before. Instead, he said, they are “getting angry and entitled and whiny” about the prospect of having to work hard for the rest of their adult life, only to “get nothing in return.”
It’s more of a problem of how little availability there is for her to actually put the degrees to use, there’s clearly a problem in the allocation of resources when educated professionals don’t have the ability to actually put their skills into the market. Proletarization goes brrrr
tbh kinda her fault for not majoring in “being born owning massive companies”
better luck next life!
