It's the only way to get ahead nowadays. There used to hypothetically be career paths where if you stayed in one job and did well, you'd advance and make a good income that can support a family, get a pension etc. Now, the better you are, the more you're taken advantage of, you don't even get raises that keep up with inflation, jobs are cut and more duties are loaded onto you for the same pay. All in the pursuit of short term profits.

The only way to avoid that is to "job hop." You can only even get close to getting paid what you're worth by having someone else pay you that amount. Without even entering into any type of socialist analysis, companies take paying people way under market or what they produce a win and won't give it up until forced.

So Gen Z is just acting rationally under Capitalism. They're done with lies about employers being "family" or the idea that they should be happy to have any job at all, when that job is making them miserable. Good.
