Anyone who uses the phrase "ok boomer" unironically can easily be dismissed as someone not worth your time

Scarborough Fair is really beautiful, but I dont think its better. Normally boomers like more embarrassing songs than Scarborough Fair
There are some really cool old people songs on this album....
It's very Kink tolerant too.
So, the last time Carlton won a premiership, you probably hadn’t had your first root.
Lol Carlton.

Also goes for the young limp wristed smart arse campaigners that refer to COVID as the " Boomer remover".

Yeah I’m Gen x and find these little ‘safe space’ seeking snowflakes almost intolerable with their lack of life experience yet ready to tell everyone else how it should be done.
But they could actually play musical instruments.

Jimi Hendrix wasn't as talented as John Mayer
I am.born in 1980 and don't qualify for either flog generations (Millenials or Boomers)
Gen Y is usually considered the worst of all as it was the first ‘gold-star’ generation.

You know what, I am back in the corner of the millennial...they seem to be the only group who give a flying f**k about getting us out of this Covid mess.
These Boomer campaigners are the problem. Hoarding all the wealth and refusing to do their bit to get vaccinated.
Avo on toast and a chai, decaf, oat milk frappe latte espresso for all millennials I say.

My eldest son's girlfriend (23yo) recently lost her job as a junior para-legal, mainly due a dispute about the old 'other duties as directed'.
While she had a reasonable argument from the start, she misunderstood the company's good will in preparing to compromise her grievance as she then sent a long list of 'other tasks' to her superior that she claimed she was 'forced to undertake' and were 'beneath her'. This list included some tasks that were actually part of her duty statement - surprisingly the company was still prepared to negotiate.
It then came to a head when she refused to take notes in a meeting one afternoon (as relief for an absent colleague), where thereafter the company sent her a warning notice stating that 'failing to follow reasonable instructions' was not acceptable for her continued employment.
In her response she then (unwisely) sent a long email to her supervisor and CC'd the senior partners of the firm that included specific clauses from the Fair Work place Act. where she basically claimed she was being unfairly mistreated and unless these conditions improved, she would have no alternative but to pursue the matter further..!!!
She was 'let go' shortly after....

Against taking notes?? oh dear it’s all sooo difficult.
Just do the job ffs.
This is the same generation that embraced Twitter as the purest form of communication (but were not smart enough to create it); and champion "graphic novels" because it would be really shameful to admit that you were too much of a dumbarse to read anything more challenging than comic books.
Guess what * heads. We know you are to dumb to get past comics.
That's bollox man
Some of you old boys would have been cool enough to spend your one shilling and six pocket money on Frank Miller and Alan Moore back in the day
Kids putting their lives on hold for a year and a half out of concern for you, you ungrateful old campaigners

Concur - and the other tasks she was apparently 'forced to undertake' causing her such; quote 'trauma' and 'belittlement' included such things as - replenishing the copier with paper, buying additional stationary, supervising AC maintenance people, delivering mail to restricted areas of the office, preparing coffee/beverages for clients, helping put up Christmas decorations - just to name a few on her list.
Poor girl, obviously she's happy to have left that despicable workplace environment and must surely be delighted to be now working part-time at a child care center for barely a third of the income...

The fact is Hendrix was a sloppy player who couldn't keep steady tempo throughout a song. Mayer has him covered both technically and musically
It's not her job though, she was asked to do somebody elses job. This is Americanized Australia at it's finest companies are not willing to hire as many staff as they used to.
In government they now give all the VPS 5's the workload a VPS 6 used to receive and pay them VPS 5 wages. Good on her for fighting back, she actually had a case sounds like she was discouraged from pursuing it further. Anyone with a brain would realize Fairwork will still look at it. It's now become unfair dismissal and the company dug their grave.. but lucky for them she decided to drop it.
It's not legal for them to employ you a level below the actual work you are doing. Despite it happening everywhere lately. The employers weigh up the risks and there are no consequences, same calculative s**t that ended up with rio tinto blowing up that mine. Fair work do prosecute them but employers have found intimidation usually stops enough victims from contacting fair work.
Every job thesedays has scum employers trying to milk extra out of workers without actually displaying any willingness to pay them extra. Things that aren't actually part of the job position. It's sick

Anyone with a brain wouldn’t have been fired for refusing to do something as simple as take notes. Anyone with a brain would’ve realized that “jnr” means you are at the bottom of the food chain.
Also she refused to perform duties that were actually in her job description.
But good on her for standing up & now devoting herself to part time child care for a 3rd of the wage.
Anymore career advice you want to add?
Face facts or FIGHT THA POWER!!!

Yeah go to fairwork. She was asked to do things outside of her job description, refused and was later fired for it. That's an open and shut case when they actually fire her for it.
Sounds like she lives around a bunch of farmers who have warped her views and talked her out of pursuing it. She was fired for not being a "team player"... the scum boss wants timid staff he can exploit without fair work looming over his head.
