[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All of the millennials I know with two working parents, even if they work from home, have some form of regular professional childcare. [/quote]

+1 and they are very responsible.  The ones that get me are the 20 somethings with no kids that expect time off for every friends wedding, bachelor party (destination party for which they need several days), shower (again a destination party for which they need several days) plus lots and lots of mental health days plus remote time so they can work from wherever their significant other is, and also don’t want to check email on their days away from the office.  I may retire early and let the millennials figure this out!   [/quote]

I am an older millennial, and I agree with the 20-something attitudes. Work to live, not live to work. [/quote]

I'm a Gen Xer and I also agree with this - why shouldn't you take your leave to go do fun things? I assume they're not taking PTO they don't have for this, so why do you care what they're doing with it? And you shouldn't check email while you're out of the office. You're using your leave, so take leave and be away. [/quote]

Sure, use your vacation.  It's a benefit and part of your compensation.  Don't also disappear and take off dozens of additional days every year because you "just can't." Especially when you lie about the circumstances to try to get a BS accommodation

That is what makes you a shitty coworker[/quote]
