[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’ve worked with millennials who mostly seem to think they should be given a medal if they show up on time. They do a good job when their ego is on the line but otherwise slack, dress too casually for work, and don’t understand they can’t work on freelance or watch tv while they work. There have been about 5 of these in my office. The one who was amazing was from another country. 
I’m Gen X and I’m sure people would’ve said similar things about my generation but I was taught to have independence, a strong work ethic, and respect. [/quote]
That’s a good point.  I think that’s the biggest difference between GenX and the millennials.  As GenX we were much more independent at a young age.  I think that for many of us a drivers license marked this transition.  Between school, sports, and work we kind of struck out on our own while in hs.  Eighteen came and we were adults and knew we had to figure it out on our own.[/quote]

100% agree with these posts. Many of my colleagues also agree that most millennials in our workspaces require frequent positive feedback and and feel entitled to pick and choose their projects. They balk at being supervised unless they are seeking something out. There is a lot of entitlement compared to previous generations. [/quote]
