Every generation thinks the one before them were stupid and the one coming after them are lazy. My generation just happens to be right.

A large percentage of our millennials become incapable of rational thought if their cell phone battery drops below 10%.
Our 22 year old was almost in a panic last weekend because we were on the way to special family dinner when she realized her cell phone was dead. The rest of the night she could not go more that 5 minutes without saying something about the dead phone or wanting someone to drive her to a store for a car charger. Who raised her? Boom. If you are fed up with Millenials...blame the Baby-Boomers, they raised them.

As young kids i took them hunting and fishing with me every chance i could. Guess what, neither cares for it now that they are older. Too each his own. They are both fine young adults.

It is about the same with every generation. The percentage will fluctuate between generations, but not as much as most people think. There are 6 young men on my block that qualify as millennial, I know that at least 4 of them went deer hunting this year. The other 2, I am not sure about, both are bike types. I have to disagree with this. I have been involved in the hiring process for my agency in some capacity for 17+/- years and I can tell you without a doubt I have seen a HUGE overall difference in applicants with the current generation. After seeing/interviewing many hundreds of applicants I can say with complete confidence the millennials on average are a completely different cat from previous generations. This goes for applicants we've hired and not hired.
