Yikes the future of this country ain’t looking good if that’s a representative sample of our zoomers.
Well at least they knew the names of all the Kardashion sisters lol.
work with a bunch of Zers.
A half are normal and hard working.
The other half are total incredibly lazy narcissist and clueless.
Years ago we had an occasion to go out for a bite. Our bill came to $17.76 so we remarked what a big year that was! Not one of the kids behind the cash registers had any idea WTH we were talking about. We were stunned! They were all HS graduates. You wouldn’t believe the guesses they made. Did somebody win the Super Bowl that year? (I think that was the craziest guess we heard.)
So while we ate our dinner, we asked each one of them who came by our table to take a plate or refill our water. Maybe when we had asked the tenth or twelfth kid did anyone say it was when we celebrate the birth of our country every year, even though we gave them MANY clues.
We promptly went home and asked each of our kids what happened in 1776, and the next day, I asked my nieces. My kids got it right (middle school through high school at the time), and one niece did, but the other had no idea (same age range).
That experience will always stay with me. How can you celebrate July 4th every year without knowing that the Declaration of Independence was signed that day? It was a sign then how bad the public schools were getting, and I know it’s even worse now.
