Gen Z as a whole is experiencing what life has been like for those in low wage high turnover jobs.
That precarious existence is now the norm for them. I am surprised they make any effort for such low wages.

As of now, they will live the rest of their lives similar to someone in a place like Argentina.
I just hope they haven't given up and will have the motivation to fight and vote for a better life.
