Pretty much.
This process was well underway in the mid-eighties when I started working. This sort of crap tended to come from over eager Boomer middle management. Welcome to my world as it has always been. This too will probably pass but too late to do me any good.
It's been slow in passing, and today seems to be even worse than it was at that time. Will probably not pass until the vast majority gets fed up enough to take to the streets. Most now are too self-absorbed to do so. It began on a small scale with the "Fight for 15" crusade along with the Occupy thing.
