(18,868 posts)I'm a Boomer. I have two Master's degrees. I couldn't find work if my life depended on it. I'm too old Nobody wants to hire anyone over about 40 these days.
I don't think it's just about millinials. It's about all of us out here.
I still blame a lot of things on computers just doing all the work that people used to do. There just aren't nearly enough jobs to go around any more and we are all suffering for it.
I opted out of the corporate world because it was killing me. Corporations don't want people to work for them. They want robots with no personalities that just shut up and do what they are told. God forbid you have a personality. Or morals.
I just think the work situation is just awful for everyone. So I just started my own one person business. I don't make much but I can get by and I don't have to sell my soul to do it.
