Hollywood movie star Jodi Foster criticized the young members of Gen Z for being sloppy in writing emails and showing up to work late. Foster made the comments in an interview with the Guardian published on Saturday. "They’re really annoying‚ especially in the workplace. They’re like‚ ‘Nah‚ I’m not feeling it today‚ I’m gonna come in at 10:30 a.m.‚' " she said. Gen Z is generally defined as referring to people born between the years of 1997 and 2012‚ and they're also called "zoomers." The 61-year-old actress went on to register her complaints against the younger generation. "Or‚ like‚ in emails‚ I’ll tell them‚ 'This is all grammatically incorrect — did you not check your spelling?' And they’re like‚ ‘Why would I do that‚ isn’t that kind of limiting?'" she said. “They need to learn how to relax‚ how to not think about it so much‚ how to come up with something that’s theirs‚" Foster continued. "I can help them find that‚ which is so much more fun than being‚ with all the pressure behind it‚ the protagonist of the story.”Zoomers responding to a Reddit thread about working with older people documented their generational grievances. “For younger people‚ the thumbs-up emoji is used to be really passive-aggressive‚” read a response from a 24-year-old. “It’s super rude if someone just sends you a thumbs up. So I also had a weird time adjusting because my workplace is the same‚" they added. A poll in 2023 found that 29% of Gen Z people said the government should install cameras in every home in order to avoid crime and abuse‚ while only 20% of respondents of an older generation agreed with the massive surveillance program. Foster is best known for portraying FBI agent Clarise Starling in the blockbuster movie "The Silence of the Lambs" from 1991. Like Blaze News?

In the wake of the recent revelations regarding Defense Sec. Lloyd Austin's hospitalization and the lack of transparency surrounding it‚ former President Donald Trump has called for Austin's firing while other Republicans have called for the cabinet official to resign."Failed Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin should be fired immediately for improper professional conduct and dereliction of duty‚" Trump declared in a January 7 post on Truth Social. "He has been missing for one week‚ and nobody‚ including his boss‚ Crooked Joe Biden‚ had a clue as to where he was‚ or might be. He has performed poorly‚ and should have been dismissed long ago‚ along with 'General' Mark Milley‚ for many reasons‚ but in particular the catastrophic surrender in Afghanistan‚ perhaps the most embarrassing moment in the history of our Country!" Pentagon press secretary Maj. Gen. Pat Ryder announced in a January 5 statement that on January 1‚ Austin had been "admitted to Walter Reed National Military Medical Center for complications following a recent elective medical procedure."The White House was reportedly notified about Austin's hospitalization later in the week.In a January 7 statement‚ Ryder noted that Austin was still at Walter Reed. "Since resuming his duties on Friday evening‚ the Secretary has received operational updates and has provided necessary guidance to his team‚" Ryder noted.In a January 6 statement‚ Austin said‚ "I take full responsibility for my decisions about disclosure." Reps. Chip Roy of Texas and Elise Stefanik of New York have been among the Republicans calling for Austin to resign."I write to request your immediate resignation as Secretary of the Department of Defense (DoD). Your failure to inform the White House‚ the National Security Council‚ and Congress of your hospitalization and subsequent inability to fulfill your national security responsibilties as Secretary in a timely manner is indefensible and unacceptable‚" Roy declared in a letter to Austin."It is shocking and absolutely unacceptable that the Department of Defense waited multiple days to notify the President‚ the National Security Council‚ and the American people that Defense Secretary Austin was hospitalized and unable to perform his duties‚" Stefanik‚ who is the House Republican Conference chair‚ said in a statement. NSC coordinator for strategic communications John Kirby has batted away the notion an Austin ouster‚ indicating that there is no plan other than for the defense secretary to remain in his role.
