A good handful of 20-somethings I work with too will prefer to "top out" at a senior level position but not as high as a PM or Director. They're happy to have just enough responsibility but without the time commitments and workplace pressures that come with the territory.
It's either genius or lazy, depending how you look at it.

I'll go home before some of my co-workers because in a lot of cases I can use computers 2-3x faster than they can. I can build the exact same spreadsheet or pull reports in 50% of the time that it takes them or write documents, etc.
Yet, they have more years and because of that, more pay.
Sometimes face time =/= productivity. That seems to be lost on a lot of Boomers.
