When the Millenials blame us, the older generation, for "ruining the economy" are they really projecting... (jobs, college)

Their inner feelings of inferiority and their belief they won't live up to our goals or accomplishments?

State your case young man. So many millenials give up so young. When I was 25 and with a MBA in hand I was offered a job in senior management at IBM. You kids fail to make the world your oyster of opportunity and success.

Yes -- but what do we expect when everything has been handed to them with little or no effort? You raise kids with the belief that showing up gets you a trophy, that the way to an "A" is to browbeat and threaten the teacher, that their widdle pwecious num-num should never ever have to work hard at all....
You end up with whiny adult incapable of achieving anything on his own because WE NEVER TAUGHT THEM TO. They have no coping skills, except for whining it isn't fair.
Guess what? Life isn't fair. The first time I made spaghetti sauce, it was pink because I didn't know to brown the meat(it wasn't listed in the recipe, as you were supposed to put cooked meatballs in, and that fact didn't sink in). I now make great spaghetti sauce. The first time I made Pineapple Upside Down cake, I blew up the Pyrex dish, because I didn't know you shouldn't use that on the flame. I now make great cakes.
My mother let me fall down in the cooking department, and I've learned from that. We decided our children weren't allowed to fail. Dumbest thing I ever witnessed.

State the case that millennial do first. You've shown nothing to back up your claims.

Also let me get this straight. You have a PhD in psychology and an MBA and went to work for ibm?
Keep trolling. You're just another old geezer with a screw loose. Nothing new

Yes. I graduated High School in 1951, went on to get my Bachelor's in 1955, and worked a few years as a manager of a drive in theater before going back to college for my MBA (graduating in 1959). From there I was offered a senior management position at IBM which I worked part time while I completed my PhD in Psychology so I could be promoted to VP in 1963. Is that too complex for you?
What's your life story son?

You're lying.
People don't get hired into "senior management" with an MBA only to work part time in order to get a PhD. Also, you don't get a doctorate in 4 years part time.
Is there any other bull manure you want me to swallow?
Finally you never supported your initial claim. Please do so, gramps, so I can refute your silly argument.

I made a good impression on my boss, I made sure to show him respect and I was an overall good person. That's why I started out as a senior manager. Plus I DID have management experience. Jobs are out there young man. You can end up just like me.
