    The quote is literally “I’m not feeling it, I’m coming in at 10:30 today”. Which at a movie set I understand how disruptive it can be. It’s not a software dev job where you can do your job from 13 to 22 for all everyone cares

    And I’m saying that probably doesn’t actually happen.

    At worst I’m calling her a liar for exagerating what does happen. That’s not a strawman. Obviously, I don’t have the evidence for it- I’ve never worked for her. What I do know is that I have never had this issue. What I have had- as a manager, dealing with Gen Z- is people calling in sick while boomers complain about how “lazy” they are.

    This, too, is not a straw man. This is an observation from my own experience. Maybe TV set Gen-Z are different. but I doubt it.

      Is Jodie Foster a well-known liar? Seriously, I have no idea.

      If not, you’re just being weirdly defensive of people you don’t know. Her anecdotes are as valid as yours, and since she probably works with more teams, they may have a bigger data source than your own.

      I’ve had her experience and yours at different workplaces.
