These Hoes Ain't Loyal Milennials at Work

Description

The lounge is now open. That's right folks, The Bail Yourself Out Happy Hour Podcast is back with its dynamic host - creator, entrepreneur, and visionary of the pod, Kandice Whitaker, who this week welcomes a prolific co-host with a thirty-year career in academia, former high school teacher, current academic professor and assistant provost Roz Whitaker.

This week Kandice and Roz examine an employee's responsibility to an employer. Does longevity still matter? In this fluctuating work landscape, is it the responsibility of either the employer or the employee, or has modern employment devolved into a 100% transactional agreement? The hosts explore the everchanging work landscape and attempt to understand the next step for future generations. The hosts explore the benefits of attending an HBCU (historically black college and university) as an undergrad and then a PWI (predominately white institution) at the graduate level. Turning the two unique experiences into one powerhouse preparation for any employer or fluctuating job marrket.

Millennials and even Generation Z have been labeled "job hoppers" because of their frequent movement between employers. Is the label justified or a by-product of the current employment landscape? Kandice and Roz have some thoughts on the matter. Roz and Kandice also examine loyalty in the workplace. Does it have a place in this post-pandemic job market? Did loyalty ever have a place in the employee-employer dynamic? The different generations of Kandice and Roz are evident as the hosts have varying degrees of belief on the subject matter. And finally, we all use it, but does the pronoun "they" suffice? Can we improve pronoun usage in formal settings to ensure the inclusivity of everyone? Roz and Kandice have a frank conversation and seek answers that could aid us all in our journey to our better selves.
