Recently, a Gen-z intern got internet attention when they sent a succinctly short and rather informal email to the company in which they worked:

Donna: “So not getting the vibe – going on a trip. Peaces out.”
This statement was apparently their leave request, therefore, the informal resignation, which immediately infuriated the netizens and started a raging debate online.

Public Reaction

The message was very comical to many of the users who gave it as an instance of the confidence and authenticity of Gen-Z.
It was considered unprofessional and also showed a decline in workplace politeness by critics.
Senior advocates claimed that it is a part of the new element of contemporary workplace culture which is based on casual and personality-driven correspondence.
Broader Implications:
The case points to the increasing intergenerational stress over workplace norms. With new generations of workers re-framing the aspects of communication and professionalism in a digital environment, employers might have to re-access the old standards of considerations and approaches to engagement.
