Friday Happy Hour for March 11, 2011

one comment

Every senior generation decries the banal idiocy of its junior generations. Remember how critical Boomers were of Generation X? 

Turns out Gen X was one of the most productive generations in a long while.  Then Gen Y just went off and fought two wars for us.

Historian Neil Howe points us to today’s Happy Hour:  a Millennial elected to Michigan’s state assembly last November. 

As Howe points out:

Many positive Millennial (born 1982-200?) traits (positive attitude, results-orientation, teamworking, close to family and community) are all reflected here

Cheers

    Especially how she closed, “…if I don’t do that, then I don’t deserve to have this job again in two years.”

    I hope some folks in Jefferson City are reviewing that.
