Hiring young people for entry level jobs requires us to educate them on how to read and count. I have never met so many high school and college grads that cannot count a simple till to 200. They also seem to have absolutley no idea that following policy and doing what their manager asks them to do is why they are being paid. They all seem to think they should be paid more, yet they don't even generate enough value to be paid what the state requires us to pay them. Most young people are worth little to nothing in the entry level market. We are being forced to be elementary school teachers just to fill basic roles.

If a person can't show up on time, read simple instructions and just does the job however the fuck they decided to randomly do it, of course thinking it is better way to do it (that obviously fails to meet the requirements) then who do they think they will magically become?

A doctor can't miss a line item, an accountant can't add incorrectly, a lawyer can't be late to court. It baffles me how young people are so clueless as to what is expected in the real world. They think they are worth so much money and have such a bright future ahead of them but they can't complete a simple task as the boss asked it to be done and literally cry when held accountable for failing.

We speak to so many small business owners who feel like they are living in the twilight zone over their staff. Many have taken to closing locations and running at a personal scale so that they can maintain sanity and live in objective reality because their staff has become so delusional and excuse driven.
