We actually had "Millennial Training" at my office to teach others how to work with Millennials. And of course, it was put on by Millennials who feel that their talents are underutilized in the workplace. They have little respect for seniority in the work place.
Gen Xers are probably the biggest generational losers though. Baby Boomers were able to profit greatly by getting into industries before university degrees were required for anything and many bought homes before the real estate boom. I know a lot of my friend's parents brag about not even having high school educations and making a tonne of money. While Gen Xers have been waiting for Baby Boomers to retire or die in order to move into higher senior positions, the Information Age has again changed industry and has passed many Gen Xers by. Millennials, having been educated in the Information Age, are now often jumping right over Gen Xers.
