Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Jodie Foster facing backlash after declaring Gen Z to be 'workshy'
Caption: Jodie Foster facing backlash after declaring Gen Z to be ‘workshy’. The Nyad actress has faced backlash on social media after she spoke out about how she believes many members of Generation Z which typically refers to those born between the mid-to-late 1990s and the early 2010s - don't want to work hard. She said in a recent interview for The Guardian, "They're really annoying, especially in the workplace.” "They're like, 'Nah, I'm not feeling it today, I'm gonna come in at 10:30 am.' Or in emails, I'll tell them, 'This is all grammatically incorrect, did you not check your spelling?' And they're like, 'Why would I do that, isn't that kind of limiting?’" Jodie, who is known for mentoring rising stars in the film industry, has come under fire on for her divisive comments. One critic wrote on social media, "My Gen Z employees are at work on time and deliver on their tasks and objectives.” “Maybe Jodie's just a bad boss and can't communicate what someone's roles, responsibilities and objectives are for the workday. Bad management always blames everyone but themselves for issues in the workplace.” And another person posted, "Criticizing an entire generation reveals more about yourself than the actual said generation.” Jodie, 61, has not yet responded to the criticism.
