More than three-quarters (77%) say they intentionally build small moments of enjoyment into their workday.<\/p>\n<p>Rather than rejecting hard work, today&#8217;s newest workers appear to be redefining how they recharge \u2013 favoring small, intentional moments throughout the day that help them feel happier, more productive and more creative.<\/p>\n<p>\n        <b>Adulting Too Hard<\/b>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The findings reflect Slice Soda&#8217;s &#8220;Adulting Too Hard&#8221; platform, which is rooted in the universal truth that sometimes we all &#8220;adult&#8221; a little too hard.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The next generation isn&#8217;t\u00a0turning their back on work.\u00a0They&#8217;re\u00a0redefining what makes work feel better, and\u00a0here at Slice we applaud that,&#8221;\u00a0said\u00a0<b>Nicole Portwood, Chief Marketing Officer at Suja Life<\/b>. &#8220;Adulthood is full of small victories worth celebrating. Whether it&#8217;s opening a Slice during an afternoon reset, taking five minutes between meetings or celebrating finishing a long-awaited project, those everyday &#8220;micro joys&#8221; can make adulting feel a little more carefree.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\n        <b>New Rules of Perks<\/b>\n      <\/p>\n<p>When asked which workplace perks would most improve their day-to-day experience, America&#8217;s newest workers ranked healthy snack and beverage stations alongside more time outdoors (43% each) highest, well ahead of an extra day off (24%).<\/p>\n<p>Nearly 82% of respondents said they&#8217;re most likely to have their best ideas somewhere other than actively working at their desk. Whether it&#8217;s stepping outside for fresh air, chatting with coworkers or enjoying a better-for-you snack or beverage, the findings suggest creativity often comes when workers step away from their screens to recharge.<\/p>\n<p>For Slice, those findings reinforce the brand&#8217;s belief that everyday wins \u2013 from landing your first internship to taking an afternoon reset \u2013 deserve to be celebrated.<\/p>\n<p>\n        <b>Methodology:<\/b>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\n        <i>The Slice Soda<\/i>\u00a0<i>Adulting Too Hard survey<\/i>\u00a0<i>was conducted online by Suzy in July of 2026 among 501 U.S. adults ages 18-25 who are current interns or have completed an internship within the past five years.<\/i>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>To learn more about Slice\u00a0Soda\u00a0visit\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/edge.prnewswire.com\/c\/link\/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=4740706-1&amp;h=645397653&amp;u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.slicesoda.com%2F&amp;a=www.slicesoda.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">www.slicesoda.com<\/a>\u00a0or follow\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/edge.prnewswire.com\/c\/link\/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=4740706-1&amp;h=2695066961&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.instagram.com%2Fslicesoda%2F%3Fhl%3Den&amp;a=%40slicesoda\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">@slicesoda<\/a>\u00a0on Instagram.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\n        <b>About Slice Soda<\/b>\u00a0<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/edge.prnewswire.com\/c\/link\/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=4740706-1&amp;h=3055006454&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fedge.prnewswire.com%2Fc%2Flink%2F%3Ft%3D0%26l%3Den%26o%3D4702257-1%26h%3D3505311098%26u%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Fedge.prnewswire.com%252Fc%252Flink%252F%253Ft%253D0%2526l%253Den%2526o%253D4681214-1%2526h%253D2930449453%2526u%253Dhttps%25253A%25252F%25252Fedge.prnewswire.com%25252Fc%25252Flink%25252F%25253Ft%25253D0%252526l%25253Den%252526o%25253D4602571-1%252526h%25253D985404392%252526u%25253Dhttps%2525253A%2525252F%2525252Fedge.prnewswire.com%2525252Fc%2525252Flink%2525252F%2525253Ft%2525253D0%25252526l%2525253Den%25252526o%2525253D4575380-1%25252526h%2525253D399718973%25252526u%2525253Dhttps%252525253A%252525252F%252525252Fedge.prnewswire.com%252525252Fc%252525252Flink%252525252F%252525253Ft%252525253D0%2525252526l%252525253Den%2525252526o%252525253D4520211-1%2525252526h%252525253D3309330632%2525252526u%252525253Dhttps%25252525253A%25252525252F%25252525252Fc212.net%25252525252Fc%25252525252Flink%25252525252F%25252525253Ft%25252525253D0%252525252526l%25252525253Den%252525252526o%25252525253D4479261-1%252525252526h%25252525253D2420083797%252525252526u%25252525253Dhttps%2525252525253A%2525252525252F%2525252525252Fslicesoda.com%2525252525252Fpassword%252525252526a%25252525253DSlice%2525252526a%252525253DSlice%25252526a%2525253DSlice%252526a%25253DSlice%2526a%253DSlice%26a%3DSlice&amp;a=Slice\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Slice<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/edge.prnewswire.com\/c\/link\/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=4740706-1&amp;h=1103820456&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fedge.prnewswire.com%2Fc%2Flink%2F%3Ft%3D0%26l%3Den%26o%3D4702257-1%26h%3D552785347%26u%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Fedge.prnewswire.com%252Fc%252Flink%252F%253Ft%253D0%2526l%253Den%2526o%253D4681214-1%2526h%253D1450978762%2526u%253Dhttps%25253A%25252F%25252Fedge.prnewswire.com%25252Fc%25252Flink%25252F%25253Ft%25253D0%252526l%25253Den%252526o%25253D4602571-1%252526h%25253D112610897%252526u%25253Dhttps%2525253A%2525252F%2525252Fedge.prnewswire.com%2525252Fc%2525252Flink%2525252F%2525253Ft%2525253D0%25252526l%2525253Den%25252526o%2525253D4575380-1%25252526h%2525253D2428690873%25252526u%2525253Dhttps%252525253A%252525252F%252525252Fedge.prnewswire.com%252525252Fc%252525252Flink%252525252F%252525253Ft%252525253D0%2525252526l%252525253Den%2525252526o%252525253D4520211-1%2525252526h%252525253D4253061929%2525252526u%252525253Dhttps%25252525253A%25252525252F%25252525252Fc212.net%25252525252Fc%25252525252Flink%25252525252F%25252525253Ft%25252525253D0%252525252526l%25252525253Den%252525252526o%25252525253D4479261-1%252525252526h%25252525253D1715640180%252525252526u%25252525253Dhttps%2525252525253A%2525252525252F%2525252525252Fslicesoda.com%2525252525252Fpassword%252525252526a%25252525253D%252525252525C2%252525252525A0Soda%2525252526a%252525253D%2525252525C2%2525252525A0Soda%25252526a%2525253D%25252525C2%25252525A0Soda%252526a%25253D%252525C2%252525A0Soda%2526a%253D%2525C2%2525A0Soda%26a%3D%25C2%25A0Soda&amp;a=%C2%A0Soda\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">\u00a0Soda<\/a>\u00a0is the classic soda you know and love, now made better.
