Nobody at the self checkout is holding me up because they are having a chat with the cashier. No one in the self checkout is holding me up because they want to talk about every item I purchased like it's some rare lost artifact. No one in self checkout is causing me to be "in the slow line" because one line feeds to multiple kiosks. No self checkout ever struck up an unwanted conversation with me, or caused me to roll my eyes in irritation with their inability to figure out how to pay wirh some obscure format, or wait for 10 mins for some stupid price check or price compare with a website or another store or whatever.

I get my shit, and I leave unbothered. I'm not working for the company any more than I am by picking my own food off the shelf. I am, however, unburdening myself of other people. I actively avoid places with no self checkout.

Mmkay.

The title says that. The title implies that. It literally says GenZ as if no one else is tired of the bullshit. GenZ may be the focus of the groups studying, but it is painted as if it's just a bunch of kids whining. They could have painted this many other ways, such as saying, "like other generations above them" or "when compared to generational cohorts" there are ways it isn't isolating and requires no major extra effort on the researchers part other than looking at the same data but a few years removed.

They did the same to Millenials and Gen X in years past and I'm sure other generations at various times as well. It's not a new issue to act like the youngest generation is the one with all the complaints and simultaneously belittle them and downplay their issues. It's a prevalent and annoying tactic used to discredit and ostracize.

Gotcha, I misread what you were saying and thought you were saying this truck and a BEV were different vehicles. But you just meant it's not as good a BEV for someone that wants to commute. Correct?

Just GenZ huh? Not say Millenials or Gen X? The rest of us don't hate the bullshit? K...

But....it has a battery? What makes the difference?

Worse every day.

Maybe your trained eye can tell better than me but it looks to me that the homecraft name in the AI one isn't even centered properly.

Your family is a large part of the problem here. They are belittling you and gaslighting you. Set firm boundaries with them and if they won't respect them, cut them out of your life. You seem to know you need to break things off with the friend. Just pull the band-aid off and stop worrying about keeping people in your life that aren't treating you well. You can always find new and better people and I'd encourage you to try. Bond with people in a shared hobby, meet at gatherings, avoid bars and dating apps if you want anything meaningful, if you are religious churches can be a great community source but it varies a great deal on the quality of people you are getting involved with.

Either way, it sounds like it's time to move on based on what you have said here. It will take some strength of will to do it. But you cN do it and you'll be better and happier for it. I don't think it helps everyone, but therapy can be a great help if you can find a good therapist.

Ok. Wake me up when it leads to meaningful change.

Wish their stock would plummet 71%

At a minimum for sure. 666 is an incredibly high ask.
