whataburgers issues are just a management issue. It really is that simple. Blaming it on generational issues is just an excuse. It’s the easy out that lazy people look for because then they don’t have to do any work to solve the problem.

Generational issues may not be the only problem, but they absolutely are a major contributing factor.
My offspring have stood out in their workplaces because they have a good work ethic. That once was taken for granted.
Sorry, you can try to defend your generation all you wish. But that will not change my real world experience and observations.
