ever generational shift comes with this kind of thing lol, when my parents generation grew up, they were considered lazy, now they're the ones giving our generation flak. Its the natural cycle of life baby!

@Tuuliska I have never had a hard time getting a job. Been employed since i was 16!!!

I am a millenial who is hard working. That is rare though. With a very few exceptions most of my friends are unemployed, broke, live with their parents, and have habits they can't afford! Even my friends with their own children tend to be immature and irresponcible!

i find it funny how throughout the video you refer to what the elder generations believe is work, you only reference working in an office. I live in Montana. Here our elder generations see hard work as physical labor. They would see sitting on the computer all day as lazy

Hey !! you guys have classsss , when ever you need to use the word fuck to express yourself, you loose a lot of build up class.

The people who criticize us forget the generation that raised us.

What pisses me off is when people say young people are lazy because they don't have jobs. Do you guys fucking realize how hard it is to get a job? And even if you do it's usually part-time. Not to mention that you need to have a college degree AND previous work experience for almost everything. The world has become competitive as hell and most young people I know are driving themselves crazy trying to keep up.

I am most certainly lazy.

Thats a good thing. People who blindly do things they dont necessarily want to are robots. People should think for themselves more, do what they want, and do it well. If thats selfishness to do what you want for a career, then I am proud to be selfish.
