[QUOTE="ClinchValley, post: 1388250, member: 24719"] I was born in '86. I think that classifies me as a millennial. I'll be honest, I have absolutely zero friends that are my age. I get along with the generation my parents fit into. I have worked since i was 13 years old. Have always paid my way. Given, it is a tough time to be trying to get a grip on finances as a young man. One truly has to think outside the box. That being said, the attitudes of millenials along with a poor work ethic and the inability to deal with criticism is a disastrous combination. When i meet someone for the first time I can see the look in their face when they assess that I am not like the rest of my generation. Almost see a look of relief. And that is sad. The term snowflake is perfect. So many people i grew up with were never told no. Never got their *** busted. Let me tell you i got my *** handed to me on the regular. And i turned out fine. I help my family every chance i can. I take pride in being able to help them. And honestly it hurts my pride when they help me. I just try my best to reciprocate. I really fear the days when we are dependent upon them. Really do. [/QUOTE]
