"Technology's Impact on Gen Z: Blurring Work-Life Boundaries"

TL;DR Summary
A psychology professor argues that Gen Z faces more pressure at work due to the lack of work-life boundaries caused by technology, unlike previous generations. She points out that older workers didn't have the same instant connectivity and were unreachable once they left the office. As a result, Gen Z is striving to establish clearer work-life boundaries, with some adopting trends like "act your wage" and "quiet quitting." While Gen Z is promoting mental health discussions, the professor cautions against mistaking normal stress for serious mental illness, emphasizing the importance of building resilience and seeking help in the workplace.
