Employee was salaried, so yes they were getting paid.

the meeting is a quarterly affair so the employee is responsible to be there.

Be there or report to HR when you do get in, they will have some paperwork for you to sign.

even having to talk about this gives me little hope for gen Z as a whole. They are lazy, self absorbed, entitled, overspending, toxic personalities

Sad but true. They think nothing of coming in late every day, calling in sick three or four times a month, (I don't call in that many times in a year,) and sitting on their phones all day texting and face-timing. I had one coworker who was highly offended when told she couldn't be on her phone at work. She claimed that at her other jobs, she was on the phone all day long and nobody complained.

I've also noticed that over half of them don't have the sense God gave a goose. They make lots of mistakes and have to be told the same things over and over again. When I first started out in the working world, back in the dinosaur era, I never would have gotten away with any of this. The future of our country does not look bright, with young people like this.

-——. Yep. This reminds me of the Poshmark commercial where the young woman is deciding which of her designer outfits she’s going to sell online for “A new bag”, “ rent”, and, “oh, yeah. This one’s going for girl’s night”. Vacuous, entitled, “nothing but the best for me” attitudes. That whole generation (and the one before it) totally skipped the work ethic, scrimp and save, start near the bottom, then work your way up. Raised indulgently, they expect to have everything their parents built up from nothing, right now.
