A small business owner has gone viral on Twitter for posting a sign in his shop window berating Gen Z cashiers, claiming that he had to close because his cashiers quit as he didn’t let their boyfriends stand around with them all shift.
A Controversial Sign
Shared to Twitter, the sign written by the frustrated boss is sparking conversations all around.
Drama Behind the Sign
According to the sign, two recently hired Gen Z cashiers quit because their boyfriends couldn’t be present during their entire shifts.
Bold Words from the Boss
The sign reads: “I apologize for us closing again. My two new cashiers quit because I said their boyfriends couldn’t stand here for their entire shift. Don’t hire Gen Z’s. They don’t know what work actually means. Now hiring! Baby boomers only. Thanks!”
Gen Z vs. Baby Boomers
Gen Z individuals were born between the mid-to-late 1990s and the early 2010s, with the oldest being around 27 years old and the youngest around 8.
The Search for Reliability
The furious boss seems to be seeking someone older, believing that baby boomers born between 1946 to 1964 may be more reliable.
Debate Ignites
The sign sparks a heated debate in the comments about ageism, stereotypes, and the business owner’s hiring practices.
Mixed Reactions
Opinions vary widely, with one person jokingly saying, “My boomer mother would bend over backwards trying to agree with this sign lol.”
Age Discrimination?
Others express concern, with one adding, “Lol age discrimination. What a way to get your business shut down for good for the hiring practices.”
Shocking Tactics
A third person humorously put, “Imagine reading that sign and thinking, ‘this seems like someone I’d like to work for!'”
The Gen Z’s Strike Back
Another person finds humour in the situation, saying, “I would pay good money to watch baby boomers deal with an afternoon rush.”
