The Millenial Student
I had never looked at us the way this video made us look. The thing is, that we didn't grow up in a world where "there is no failure." Back in the day, students did not compete for a 7.0 GPA, or take six AP's there freshman year of highschool. Because we feel like we worked hard, why should we settle for something that isn't sufficient to what we've worked for? And if our parents have worked so hard to get us where we are today, then there is no reason to settle for anything less than what we want. Back in the day, work was something to dread. He says that there is no such thing as a "dream job". If I am going to school for the next four years, there better be a dream job at the end of it. I don't believe in studying something just for the money. If you want a career, it should be something you are passionate about. I don't see what is wrong with the work place being a friendly atmosphere. Work is something you should work hard at, but there is no reason for you to be miserable. This old man should get with the times. We can have our cake and eat it too.
