Millennial babies

[Dave_L]

Saw this posted on FB:

• Over 35 million Baby Boomers will be leaving the workplace in the next 10 to 15 years
• The cost of replacing an employee varies from 50% of their annual salary to 400%
• Half of Millennials (twenty-somethings) would rather have no job than a job they don't like
• Millennials are five times more likely to quit if they have a poor relationship with their manager

One comment so far: "Belieeeeee dat. Job security just isn't our priority."

Dear Lord, take me now.

No job>job. That 2+2=5 math is starting to add up now.

Am I gen X or gen Y? It says Gen X goes to the early 1980s and Gen Y (Millenials) starts in the early 1980s?

These "facts" see about as useful as 90% of people want expanded background checks.

As someone in his early thirties I get a little excited reading things like that. I like to work, and if the other folks my age are lazy and useless, hey less competition for me.

Well, because some (or shall I saw few %) of the kid can generate an income online.
Of course, mass % of the kids who said that aren't brilliant. They probably hug a console, or smoke a joint at home.

I must not know anyone that's typical of my generation. All of my friends are educated, employed and hard working.

Average per hour for not working beats minimum wage. In some parts of the country, no workie is equivalent to $15/hour. Then they sit on the internet, make video and get $ for clicks. Building a house of cards are we!

I bet none of your friends are liberals.

You're just better at choosing friends. Unfortunately I work with some of these people and they are idiots.

Newer generation of the recent graduates has become either lazy or risk loving people (huge risk taker).
TOO MANY of them takes an advice from a founder of Apple, Microsoft, Google, Yahoo, Groupon, Paypal, YouTube, etc TOO LITERALLY.

Yeah, I love to do what I love to do too, but it does NOT Pay the damn bill.
Also, my parents are (and were) NOT wealthy enough for me to take a huge risk to open my own venture capital at a basement/garage.
