I was talking with a coworker today about not being able to find quality younger applicants/employees.
We talked about them not wanting to work hard, lack of a “can do” attitude, won’t work in harsh conditions out doors etc.
We also discussed how they all think the world revolves around them, their opinion is the only one that counts and they can voice their opinion whenever they want.

A few conclusions:

They have never been hungry.
They have never been truly worried about where their next meal is coming from.
They have never been shown the meaning of excellence in what they do.
They have never been encouraged to excel.
They have been taught that mediocrity is acceptable.
They have never been told NO.
They think that everybody must respect their opinion.
They think they can say whatever they want whenever they want.
They think that they are owed $100k a year just for showing up.


A couple of realities why they are like this.

Mommy and Daddy never told them NO.
Mommy and Daddy never let them fail on their own.
Mommy and Daddy never paddled their a$$.



They have never tasted their own blood.
They have never had to pick their own a$$ up off of the floor when somebody handed it to them.

Some of the best advice my Dad ever gave me:
Don’t let your mouth write a check your a$$ can’t cash.

Parents raise their replacements

You sow what you reap.

So it's the boomers and Gen Xs fault.

If your children suck it's because you failed some point as a parent.

Not that you don't have shit birds in any generation.  I say that as a Gen X'er that rode a bike without a helmet and various other "dangerous today" activities.  Think your gen x pool sucks to make that broad statement.  Some gen X'ers are already retired because they did well and made good personal choices.

Oh look, another boomer vs everyone else thread. Where a boomer makes an absolutely asinine ridiculous statement. Then everyone who isn’t a boomer uses logic, statistics and personal experience. In both big and small words to try to convince the boomers their wrong. And the year isn’t in fact 1969.

Which in the end the boomers will prance away while loudly stating to anyone how they won that argument. While anyone with a 5th grade reading level will dig through the 9 plus pages and independently conclude the boomer is an absolute fucking retard.

The old adage of proper breeding and not pumping out kids with the village retard was a really good point.

Unfortunately one enraged dude with a weird mustache and an epic rampage latter. Has made saying such things a taboo.

You might want to remove Gen X.  Also, boomers have had it easier than any generation before or after them.  You got to prosper during peak America.

Mommy and Daddy never told them NO. Got told this ALL the damn time. My dad's answer was usually, "Do you have the money? Because I'm not paying for it."
Mommy and Daddy never let them fail on their own. Yep, that one, too. I failed all the time. But I learned to never stop trying.
Mommy and Daddy never paddled their a$$. Definitely got this. Hell, got it at school, too.....more than once.



They have never tasted their own blood. Done that one a couple time. Well, maybe more than a couple, lol
They have never had to pick their own a$$ up off of the floor when somebody handed it to them. Have had that one, too. One time was from my mom.

There often to most times was no daddy.
Mommy divorced daddy when they were eight because she "wasn't happy", so daddy wasn't around on a daily basis during their critical teen years (both boys and girls)
Or Mommy just got knocked up because she wanted children accessories, and there never was a daddy.

I can't fucking wait until the boomers are gone, just so I don't have to listen to this stupid shit anymore.
Even if they're 100% right and all of society crumbles without their efforts, it'll still be worth it just to not hear their self-righteous blathering anymore.

What a self aggrandizing bunch of boomer bullshit.

Op is a moron that fails to realize how many of gen x and millennials not to mention some gen y fought in some of the most protracted wars this nation has faced.

From ODS all the way to GWOT a lot of us did what you old hippy scum were unwilling to do in your war. From Pelosi and Clinton and Obama and Epstein your generation was a blight on this country.

Good news is we will be the generations to who get to lock you in hospice while you crap your pants and wither away. So enjoy your “wisdom” while it lasts.
