The life of a millennial:
- Graduated into the Great Recession
- Entry level jobs required 3 years experience
- Pensions replaced by the 401k
- Promoted at work meant a 2% raise & 200% more responsibility
- Felt stability in life then a pandemic
- Highest inflation in 50 years deleted pay raises
- Home prices doubled overnight forcing permanent renters
- Childcare costs 1 month of rent
- Juggling aging parents, young kids, burnout from work & the cost to live
- AI causing mass layoffs during peak earning years
@IamBirdMomma@Rightanglenews No. They’re weighed by the company that sends them to Walmart. Walmart is charged for that item at that weight. Walmart will eat that lose. The Department of agriculture goes to stores to monitor these things. Scales at the store level are tested for accuracy as well.
Talking about overhauling things, let’s talk about overhauling how much time we spend at work/home versus pay. Can’t teach our young ones life lessons if both parents are at work all the time.
