I know that with time every generation creates or uses words and statements in a new and different way.

I love how creative Gen Z is with language, but sometimes I feel like I need a translator. What’s one Gen Z term that totally baffled you at first?

For me, I got schooled in a bunch of gen Z terms over the weekend. Still don't understand most of it.

I've given up trying to understand all of it lol. The most recent one I encountered was "it's giving....". It's so weird how this sort of thing works its way into the mainstream. I'm curious, what Gen Z-isms did you get schooled on? I'm sure the majority will read like complete gibberish to me 😂

Sigma, rizz, Cap / no cap is just out of my reach..

When did we become so old?!

Sigma, but in a more funny way then the technical definition. I can kind of understand some of it in context, but there are still things that don’t make any sense. I think it’s hilarious though. I would probably have to take notes if anyone Gen Z started to try and talk me through it. 😂

I'm probably too old to get a lot of it, but it's not that baffling by the second or third time you hear a phrase. The conversations aren't that complicated really, they're essentially the same conversations young people have always had. That's the thing about language, it changes, but people are still people, doing the usual things people do.

"Ranch" is an interesting one. Basically a cover word for whatever a young person is doing that they don't want authority figures to know about."

Our employee satisfaction survey is tied to our performance goals. Meaning, if we rate management badly, we cannot meet 10% of our goals which in turn affects our bonuses and raises.

It’s a total shift that would really heal my work-life balance, job satisfaction and budget. My only fear is that I would not be using the license and degree that I worked so hard for. I would appreciate any input!!!!
