A lot has been said and written about the fragility of Gen Z, particularly in the classroom. They can’t be assigned reading material or watch a movie without receiving trigger warnings, not just about explicit sex, but about such lesser evils as “smoking” and (oddly) “language.”Upsetting a kid today comes with a heavy penalty.

No one goes on a walk outside anymore. Or rather, sure they do, but most walkers today equip themselves with headsets of one form or another, blocking out the actual sounds of the real world. In my home state of Florida, that includes a pleasant cacophony of birdsong, from the squawking of wild parrots, to the gobble-gobble of sandhill cranes, to the sweet warbling of finches. Behind the protective wall of noise-cancelling headphones or earbuds, walkers might as well be indoors at a gym.

Once I got called, the checkup only took 10 minutes, something like the max in the world of corporate medicine, but I was clearly going to be late for the second.
