> Comparing the work ethic of my parents generation to that of millennials is… like comparing night and day.

Is there any quantitative data available to back up this claim?

An amusing thread on the subject:

A Brief History of Nobody Wants to Work Anymore https://twitter.com/paulisci/status/1549527748950892544?s=20...

A.k.a. you can find an article saying anything if you search hard enough. And a paragraph or sentence is easier.

That is unfair. The twitter post has pictures of articles along with their sources going back to the 1800s. That is not a bar a random search comes up with. If it is so easy then use the same bar and get one sentence sources going back to the 1800s backing the thesis that people nowadays have less work ethics.
