Thank god, because I have people who walk around the office with their phones held up to their face, they can't leave their desk without the phone. And they are in their late 30's.


There was a girl in my office a couple jobs back that did that. Everywhere she went she was on that and walking. I kept thinking how that had to look so bad to the folks who had the power to promote her.

I mean,she'd walk right past VPs and stuff. Shouldn't you want to at least drop a "hello"?

My last job I got hated on a lot for being a millennial.....but then I’m still the one that had to come to for even basic excel help. Assholes didn’t even know how to link multiple excel files onto one different excel file so multiple people could update their project info for the owners at the same time.

I was just talking to one of my customers yesterday. He’s going back to get another degree and he is taking a business communication class. He’s been doing research about the gap between what graduates have to offer and what hiring managers are looking for. Most hiring managers now want soft skills. So you could be the smartest guy in the room but if you can’t communicate that well with the rest of your team You will not thrive.

Not sure when this was NOT the case. Communication of ideas has ALWAYS been top 2 or 3 needs. ALWAYS.

With phones and the such it’s becoming a lost art. Kind of like that thread yesterday where the girl didn’t want to do a speech bc of social anxiety.

Now keep in mind I’m 27 and he’s 34 so I of course tell him after all this if this is true I have upper management written all over me.

But, but, but, it's not their fault. They were raised to believe that nothing was ever their fault. Remember, everyone gets a trophy!
Using Occam's razor, it must be those bad old parents to blame.

Sounds like you work at a place that allows dinosaurs to keep their jobs.

What you describe here is your employer’s fault, not an entire generation.

Some Boomers could teach you things about Excel, you just don’t happen to work around them.

Upgrade your employer or lay back and enjoy being valuable amongst the dinosaurs.

Your whining here doesn’t reflect well on you or your choice of employer.

I'm sure you could come up with a comprehensive list of complaints that each successive younger generation said about their parents as well. What's your point?
