I am shocked...

I am generally shocked by the behavior I hear about from my friends in the corporate world. People seem to feel entitled to choose whether or not to show up on time and whether or not to carry out their assigned tasks, and this is becoming ACCEPTED behavior. I guess I have some sort of moral compass that prevents me from behaving like that (my family raised me well). I look at this and think about all of the hard working individuals who are looking for work, and I can’t believe people are being rewarded for doing the minimum. I think they should be fired for doing less, but apparently there are people in positions of power that need to grow spines.

This morning and last week Morning Edition on NPR ran employment segments about the “Millenials” who are entering the work place. The segment last week was infuriating and this one just reminded me of how pissed off I was last Wednesday morning.
Apparently these people need lots of rewards, encouragement, and general hand-holding by their supervisors. If they don’t feel their contributions are recognized and values, then they’ll leave in search of a more rewarding position.
