The author doesn’t blame any of the generations in the article. She says that millennials are workaholics because they graduated during the 2008 crash and were forced to go “above and beyond” to keep a basic job

So, instead of bemoaning Gen Z’s lack of work ethic, perhaps we should be praising them – and trying to emulate their more balanced approach. As Fisher puts it: “Ignore the boss’s after-hours WhatsApp message and continue your evening, please!”
