I recall the same criticisms and hand wringing over the "decline" of education and the "stupidity" of young people (lack of spelling and grammar etc) being levelled at my generation, I am 56.
This is nothing new. It seems to have always been a favourite pastime for the older generations to deride and belittle the younger ones. Do you baby boomers remember the "young people of today" chant?
And as for "checkout chicks", they are just young people doing a fine job.
They don't deserve to have their work or themselves demeaned.
Here's to our younger generation!
Cheers
