I saw a crazy meme today. While I laughed... it honestly made me think - For anyone born in 2000, it's been a rough 6 years. COVID hit at the time life became "enjoyable" for them, and then the AI boom is now hitting when they are becoming "employable." Now add in housing costs and inflation... yikes! Do you think this upcoming generation has it rough?

I’ve been saying that I feel bad for anyone graduating college right now because of how tough the job market is. I really do feel like that generation has had it much harder than some of us.

Haha yeah, that meme hits a little too close to home 😅. Every generation has its struggles, but they really did get a tough combo all at once!

Super rough. I thought I had it bad graduating in '09, but that's a lot to get hit with in a short amount of time. Hope it brings those new grads some level of comfort knowing the job market is brutal for experienced professionals too thanks to AI and everything else that's happening currently.

I think every generation has something. (I graduated college during covid so job market was tough). I feel like if they’re willing to make the most of their circumstances they’ll be okay.

Couldn't have said it better!

Every generation has its own set of challenges
