Put them in their lockers before first bell and pull their pants down in front of the cheerleaders.

Boomers are ruining the place I work at. Gonna go OOB soon if about 90% of them arent fired.
Funny how that works. |

From your post it seems like management is aware of the issue. If it's not directly affecting you and your work load sounds like it's time to STFU and MYOB.

I've got one of those too. Young engineer. Thing is, he still does more work than any of my other engineers and I would be fucked if I lost him at this juncture.

i find its not 100% the boomers fault, if management is going to coddle them they will continue the behavior.

I have connections with staffing places and with many HR people and biz owners with my commercial accounts.
Many places here tolerate call offs even if they are one a week. They have stopped writing people up for it at some places. They used to let people go for missing work but the people that replaced them are even worse. They are happy when people show 4 out of 5 days. The weird thing is that it's not just the younger workers either. It has become a much broader problem across the board. They just do their best to work around it anymore. I could grow my business right now but I'm wondering if I'm better off staying smaller. There's no way I could absorb and do the work I have to take on to employ someone and cover for them if they decide to stay home because "My cat has anxiety today.....I can't come in." |

This is the trend all over the country, standards are very different than when I was younger
I work for a ski resort at the moment, our struggle to fill positions is so bad we don’t fire people we catch smoking weed on the clock Wait until the economy goes downhill again and there is actuall competition for lower level employment |

As a 31 year old millennial I've been paying in to social security since I was 16. Too bad older generations will take it all because they love socialism.

Things have changed, that's for sure.
An old guy once told me, keep your head down, do your work and don't get involved in other people shit. Everytime I broke that advice, I got fucked. Now, I work everyday for myself and the day I can retire. Don't care what other people do, as long as they leave me be. It is frustrating though, seems like there is a double standard going on. |

My best employees are younger than me.
My worst fuck around, milk the clock, pass blame, employees are all older. One of them came in today with a doctors note for high blood pressure(183 over 110) And acted like it’s the working conditions, and he doesn’t need anymore stress put on him. God forbid anyone expect competent employees. Motherfucker can’t even take responsibility for his own health. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: It's only 2019. Early 2000's could make him 18 years old, that's pretty young for an engineer. The exact range doesn't seem to be super agreed on but just wanted to throw that out there, as many people like to rip on that generation but don't realize....they may be one of them.

I'm too busy to notice let alone care when others show up. Unless your in a career field where people are waiting on you or require your absolute presence it does not matter.
You can find wasted time and productivity in absolutely everything. Many boomer activity i find to be a massive bomb to productivity but hey as-long as you show up on time you can bullshit about the NFL season for a hour per day with ya boys

I'm a millennial, late only when I can't control it. I am management and have been since I was 20yo. The millenials that work for me are late almost every day.
It has nothing to do with generations but it's fucking mind boggling. ETA: Tardy is 10min or less late anythimg after that is fucking late. |
