I am millennial because I was born in 1993. I completely believe I fit into this category. The characteristics are actually based on that we are self indulged, lazy, tech savvy, multi-taskers, and connected. We are standing in line right now for the iPhone 7! It is crazy how true this is about us. Guess it comes with the territory because these things are very much true. I never even knew that these generations had characteristics so I found it quite interesting. And at first I didn't believe it, I assumed it was something that is like zodiac signs.
Millennials also want instant gratification, balance, flexibility, career advancement and a transparent set of mind. I can easily say this is me to a tee. When I first was reading about it I thought I was reading a biography, but it was actually just description of the characteristics of people who are born in the millennials.
Every generation and is different and brings something new to the table. So with that being said millennials aren't that bad at all! This is all useful to implement all these characteristics into the workforce. But all in all we want the next best thing and we are hard core social network fans. We find one thing relevant and the next minute it's old news. It also turns out we are not as subtle as we like to be meaning we are not going to tip toe around the point. I really found this article precise especially with a title like "me me me generation" I never have read anything so accurate!
