These new-hires have it made. I have to remind some of them that their 2nd year pay was higher than our 12 year pay. I'm happy for the new bunch in almost every way, except for the whining crap I'm hearing about how they have to work weekends, and holidays, and so on. It's like the entitled folks that don't want to go back to working in an office for two days a week, thinking they are remote-only folks. Be happy you got the job, and only have it tough for maybe a year or two at most, with every option available. Heck, many past new-hires didn't even know what reserve was, and i have to explain to them the importance of ensuring we have improved reserve work rules. Oh well, history repeats. Good deeds get forgotten, and folks, especially the younger ones, only vote only for themselves. I've accepted that reality.
