Discrimination based on race, gender, or sexual orientation is wrong, and hiring decisions should be based on merit. Small businesses are facing challenges due to the current economic climate and are in a wait-and-see mode. DEI initiatives have been weaponized and can create division rather than unity. Gen Z job seekers should focus on showing up, working hard, and being cheerful to differentiate themselves in the workforce.
