Yeah i hope my generation gives me a pleasant surprise. The American millies anyway. NZ millies are living up to our role fortunately and it has been wonderful to play a part in it. Kiwi millies are competent and know team work gets a job done faster and especially without complaint. I can only hope American millies listen to xers and do the same.
You have to understand that Generation X did not turn out as planned, they never realized that the better part of an entire generation would not revere them. The Milles are simply the tax livestock they hope to bleed dry right along with Generation X. Right now the younger Millies are in the process of having life kick the shit out of them until they get a clue.
Yeah that sucks for me. Looks like I'm going into thousands of dollars in debt and being leeched off of by the Boomers who suck the Social Security net dry and leaving none for us. And the ones who won't retire have all the good jobs that us Millies are trying to get degrees for.
