re: If Baby boomers and Gen X ruined this country

Please. I'm X, have been in the work force 16 years and the day I stepped into it I was more prepared and more brave than you'll ever be. I moved from BR to Silicon Valley to work my way up from the bottom. Had degrees in physics and ond in applied physics (MS EE), but I took a project engineer position at UL writing procedures for cooking appliances. I've worked all sorts of positions and currently work on the road doing fracture mechanics as an ME and fricking put in more hours than any of you pussies will. I hear it, "I deserve more money because I see the average online and you're not paying me that." Really, really, really? You want my salary even though you don't know shite. I could work circles around you in 5 different jobs, what can you do?
