L.O.L.

I literally dont know a single person with this attitude. Most people just want a stable job.

I graduated in the last decade and am not a boomer by any means, but there certainly are many that expect that since they went through college that things should be layed out in front of them. My wife works with a couple new grads (guy from Bama, girl from KSU) he is just miserable about his job, she bitches constantly even though they are with a company that will give them solid experience.

Because of the economy I had to wait tables after graduating for about 8 months. Then did door to door business telephone line sales. It sucked very very badly. Things picked up and finally started on my career a bit late.

Personally I think its best if people have struggles they have to overcome early in their career as it engrains in you that you can make it through it.

In all, it is incorrect to label a generation one way or another. My dad knows his dad sacrificed a lot to allow him to get into college and have the life he lived. It is the same reason he never complained about helping his kids have the same opportunity. Same reason I won't if I do have kids.
