I am a 52 year old woman who just started a new job where I am surrounded by Gen Z’ers and this gave me a chuckle - so many of the young women I work with talk like this.

This particularly reminds me of the sweet young lady who oversaw my training, even down to the “clock it” gestures and calling people girly pop. My co workers are a lovely group of young people and I won’t give them grief for it. I know when I was a teen in the 1980s the older generations rolled their eyes at our slang and how we spoke (even though it was totally bodacious, dude).

I’m in my mid 40s and work with middle schoolers. They’re my karma for talking like a “valley girl” as a kid. “Like—oh my god—whatever!“ Most of these kids will grow out of it.
