‘Gen Z ain’t ready’: Man loses a job offer over a missed deadline — calls it ‘discrimination’

A TikTok video about a canceled job offer has started a big debate about work expectations and how younger workers view their jobs.

Creator @reesesaun shared his story of losing a cybersecurity job offer just three days after getting it. His video got people talking on social media about being professional and committed to work. The problem started when @reesesaun said yes to a job offer and right away asked to start six weeks later because he had travel plans. The company said okay to his request.

When he asked the recruiter for more time, she told him the company had taken back his offer.
