The Millennials

"They were raised by doting parents who told them they are special, played in little leagues with no winners or losers, or all winners. They are laden with trophies just for participating and they think your business-as-usual ethic is for the birds. And if you persist in the belief you can, take your job and shove it."

There are about 80 million "Millennials", born between 1980 and 1995, who are rapidly taking over from the baby boomers who are now going on 60. According to the public's eye, the millennials have the upper hand in the workplace because they are tech savvy - that they multitask, walking, talking, listening, typing and texting. They also believe that their priorities are simply that they come first.

"Some of them are the greatest generation. They're more hardworking. They have these tools to get things done. They are enormously clever and resourceful. Some of the others are absolutely incorrigible. It's their way or the highway." says Marian Salzman, an ad agency executive who has been managing and tracking millennials since they entered the workforce.

I do agree that my generation is much more technologically advanced than the previous generation. we have grown up with computers and other technology, and many of my generation use it one a daily basis for learning. the previous generation, on the other hand, had to adapt to the new learning style; a much more difficult way to be knowledgable about it, rather than just growing up on it
