1 00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:03,240 Speaker 1: Jersey and Amanda gem Nation. 2 00:00:03,400 --> 00:00:05,800 Speaker 2: It's interesting we're just talking about older people going in 3 00:00:05,800 --> 00:00:10,200 Speaker 2: to share accommodation and the younger people. This is another 4 00:00:10,240 --> 00:00:13,319 Speaker 2: part of that statistic is that younger people aren't sort 5 00:00:13,320 --> 00:00:16,800 Speaker 2: of entering the share accommodation market as much anymore because 6 00:00:16,800 --> 00:00:19,200 Speaker 2: a lot of them are still living at home. So 7 00:00:19,440 --> 00:00:23,480 Speaker 2: all these generational shifts are taking place, and kids living 8 00:00:23,520 --> 00:00:26,040 Speaker 2: at home longer means that they rely on their parents 9 00:00:26,079 --> 00:00:30,560 Speaker 2: for more. I've read these interesting statistics here. These are 10 00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:33,400 Speaker 2: American statistics, but I've been interested to know if they're 11 00:00:33,400 --> 00:00:35,720 Speaker 2: similar to the ones we have here. Nearly half of 12 00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:39,080 Speaker 2: gen Za's have mum regularly talked to their boss. Now, 13 00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:41,519 Speaker 2: when I think of gen Z, I think someone who's sixteen, 14 00:00:41,640 --> 00:00:44,040 Speaker 2: but that's not they're in their mid twenties. My son's 15 00:00:44,080 --> 00:00:46,560 Speaker 2: are gen Z. You've got a couple of your dominic 16 00:00:46,600 --> 00:00:47,239 Speaker 2: could be gen Z. 17 00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:48,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, right. 18 00:00:49,159 --> 00:00:53,560 Speaker 2: Officially it's ninety seven to twenty twelve, so the drop 19 00:00:53,640 --> 00:00:56,880 Speaker 2: zone is kind of mid twenties. So this is what 20 00:00:56,960 --> 00:00:59,600 Speaker 2: I find extraordinary. Kids are in their mid twenties. And 21 00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:04,240 Speaker 2: this is what this survey has found is that thirty 22 00:01:04,280 --> 00:01:07,640 Speaker 2: one percent of gen zetters had a parent write their resume. 23 00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:12,000 Speaker 2: That's not so bad. I think i'd be if my 24 00:01:12,120 --> 00:01:14,360 Speaker 2: kids wanted my help, I'd love to my eldest, I'd 25 00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:15,120 Speaker 2: flourish it from me. 26 00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:16,800 Speaker 1: He was now thirty three. 27 00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:19,160 Speaker 3: I was trying to get him a job years ago, 28 00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:22,640 Speaker 3: and so I said, right, So I started sending and 29 00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:26,400 Speaker 3: I became a sport, and I applied on his behalf 30 00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:26,960 Speaker 3: at Bunnings. 31 00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:29,600 Speaker 1: I thought, I'll get a job for punning's easier. 32 00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:32,800 Speaker 3: Easy, and no, no, no, well these days and I 33 00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:33,959 Speaker 3: was quite happy with everything. 34 00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:37,319 Speaker 1: GTP will outdo all of us, all their psych tests 35 00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:38,240 Speaker 1: and all the things. 36 00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:39,039 Speaker 2: Still didn't get it. 37 00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:41,320 Speaker 1: Didn't get the job. And then I said, what does 38 00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:42,880 Speaker 1: that say about me? Can we get a job? 39 00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:46,480 Speaker 2: And it was everything about you? Seventy seven percent? This 40 00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:48,600 Speaker 2: is I find extraordinary. Have taken a parent to a 41 00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:54,480 Speaker 2: job interview as a boss? You go, come on, Anita McGregor, 42 00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:57,040 Speaker 2: who I do that? My podcast with my friend is 43 00:01:57,080 --> 00:02:02,200 Speaker 2: a she's a university lecturer. Professor close enough, but she's 44 00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:06,640 Speaker 2: also a university lecturer and her students are postgrade, so 45 00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:09,880 Speaker 2: they've already done a psychology degree. This is a forensic psychology. 46 00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:12,640 Speaker 2: It's the next you're a little bit older, and she 47 00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:15,160 Speaker 2: said that every parent's trying and get in touch with her. 48 00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:19,040 Speaker 2: She just judges people so harsh. Parents should not be involved. 49 00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:21,320 Speaker 2: As much as you want to as a parent, you're 50 00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:25,040 Speaker 2: desperate to fix things, but when it but it's received 51 00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:28,160 Speaker 2: very differently. And my kids go, Mom, don't. 52 00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:30,360 Speaker 1: Know and you want to as you say, want to. 53 00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:33,079 Speaker 3: My daughter she was working for a blake years ago 54 00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:36,160 Speaker 3: and he just wouldn't pay her.

And he was, I'll pay 57 00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:41,800 Speaker 3: you next week and then next week we'll come. And 58 00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:43,600 Speaker 3: there was one time it was like two months in 59 00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:44,200 Speaker 3: a rears. 60 00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:45,560 Speaker 1: Really yeah, and. 61 00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:48,560 Speaker 3: I said, Jones had to step up to the plate. 62 00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:49,880 Speaker 3: I said, I'm just going to go out and see. 63 00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:53,080 Speaker 3: And he was in a shop near us and I thought, 64 00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:54,080 Speaker 3: I can't do this. 65 00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:55,200 Speaker 1: She said, Dad, don't do it. 66 00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:56,760 Speaker 3: Then one day I'm in the shop and he came 67 00:02:56,840 --> 00:02:58,240 Speaker 3: up and he's talking to me and he said, I 68 00:02:58,240 --> 00:02:59,760 Speaker 3: should get you to come and sprook outside of my 69 00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:02,679 Speaker 3: shoe and I said, hey, you can't afford me, and 70 00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:04,080 Speaker 3: be I heard you don't pay. 71 00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:07,560 Speaker 1: Your bills, and like it was just the occident. What 72 00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:09,200 Speaker 1: happened as you got paid that afternoon. 73 00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:12,560 Speaker 2: Funny about that. Fifty three percent of parents have spoken 74 00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:16,359 Speaker 2: with a hiring manager on their child's behalf. Forty five 75 00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:19,480 Speaker 2: percent regularly have a parent talk to their current manager. 76 00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:23,920 Speaker 2: These are people in their mid twenties. Oh and if 77 00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:25,919 Speaker 2: you break all of that down, Oh, look at these. 78 00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:28,760 Speaker 2: Eighty three percent of have parents packed their lunch for them. 79 00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:31,080 Speaker 1: I'd love that. 80 00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:33,920 Speaker 2: Fifty percent say parents spoke to their manager of our 81 00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:37,160 Speaker 2: workplace conflict. This is interesting. One forty nine percent say 82 00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:39,600 Speaker 2: a parent helped the master time off because a parent 83 00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:41,960 Speaker 2: would say, hey, we're going on a holiday, I'll talk 84 00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:44,160 Speaker 2: to your boss about it. This is where as a parent, 85 00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:47,120 Speaker 2: you're desperate to step in because this benefits you. 86 00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:47,560 Speaker 1: You get your. 87 00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:51,280 Speaker 2: Family holiday, but conversations about getting a raise and a 88 00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:54,880 Speaker 2: promotion parents Forty six percent of parents are stepping in 89 00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:58,040 Speaker 2: for that too. These aren't kids who are sixteen, These 90 00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:00,360 Speaker 2: are kids who are older than that. You find that 91 00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:03,800 Speaker 2: quite extraordinary. These are the knock on effects of kids 92 00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:07,400 Speaker 2: living at home longer because it changes the parents' life too. 93 00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:10,480 Speaker 2: In the older generation, you wouldn't be involved in any 94 00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:13,240 Speaker 2: of this. Your child would be winning or losing on 95 00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:16,919 Speaker 2: their own terms. Now they're in your house, you're hearing 96 00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:21,560 Speaker 2: these stories. They're more emotionally dependent on you. So this 97 00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:23,880 Speaker 2: is where we are extraordinary. 98 00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:26,559 Speaker 1: Imagine art your father making you lunch. 99 00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:30,960 Speaker 2: Imagine once mum had to go into hospital for a procedure. 100 00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:34,040 Speaker 2: The family pretty much broke down and Dad said, I'll 101 00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:36,159 Speaker 2: wrap up some biscuits for you for school. There were 102 00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:38,760 Speaker 2: Anzac biscuits. He put four of them in a row 103 00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:42,279 Speaker 2: and put glad wrap around them. This is also the 104 00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:44,320 Speaker 2: man that bit into some sliced cheese and ate it, 105 00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:46,960 Speaker 2: or not realizing that there were bits of plastic between 106 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:48,640 Speaker 2: the slice. 107 00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:51,760 Speaker 1: Now we might put that up on our socials. Get 108 00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:52,440 Speaker 1: your thoughts on that. 109 00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:53,000 Speaker 3: Yes,
