       Being on the committee of a small community non-profit has really emphasized how much workplace casualization and "hustle culture" has killed those sorts of groups.Like, the org is about twenty years old, and was founded by Boomers and Gen Xers with relatively stable, middle-class jobs. They could use a combination of their free time and the "adult skills" from their day jobs (admin, management, finance, etc.) to run the org.

       But they've mostly all moved on now, for a variety of reasons, and we are really, REALLY struggling to get replacements.Partly because people are overworked and burnt out from their increasingly precarious day jobs in a way I don't think used to happen a generation ago, but also because the for want of a better word, "ITIL-ization" of work means a lot of young white collar workers just... don't have the people- and problem-solving skills they need to actually deal with management-tier work.

       Like so many entry-level type jobs now are basically "follow this script/process", and brutal KPIs mean people in those positions don't have the time and job autonomy to explore how to solve problems in the workplace in more mature ways.So not only as they not getting the skills they need to progress in their day jobs, but they also struggle with the kind of day-to-day community organizing stuff modern social life runs on.
