There are a lot of behaviors that Gen Z (much like any young generation has) displays that are not as easily understood by those older than them<\/p>\n<p>A lot of young people apparently do not think the \u2018thumbs up\u2019 emoji is a nice one and consider it to be \u2018passive agressive\u2019 referring it to as something that can even prove to be \u2018triggering\u2019 to some of them.<\/p>\n<p>A Gen-Z individual who recently joined the workforce shared, \u201cI started an \u2018adult\u2019 job where we use Microsoft Teams to connect with each other for work.

Most people at work use the \u2018thumbs up\u2019 reaction all the time.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>They went on, \u201cI don\u2019t use it much. I either \u2018heart\u2019 reactions or reply, even if it\u2019s a short \u2018Great!\u2019 or \u2018Thanks!\u2019 (I also feel like I usen too many exclamation marks, but that\u2019s a different story).<\/p>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Gen-Z has a lot of differences from the generations before them.
