Ha, yes, I’ve noticed this too.

I do think that’s a real generational difference. More Millennials than any other generation either have a retail/service job that they know they’ll likely never leave, or have friends with those jobs.

It creates a lot more empathy than a Boomer who had such a job for six months one summer and then headed off on a real career track. Also see this.

There are other causes and differences, of course, but good observation.
