Sorry to the younger guys,,,but this sums it up!
 
1 Attachment(s)
WHO IS GENERATION Y

- People born before 1946 were called The Silent generation..

- People born between 1946 and 1964 are called The Baby Boomers.

- People born between 1965 and 1979 are called Generation X.

- And people born between 1980 and 2010 are called Generation Y.

Why do we call the last group Generation Y?



Y should I get a job?
Y should I leave home and find my own place?
Y should I get a car when I can borrow yours?
Y should I clean my room?
Y should I wash and iron my own clothes?
Y should I buy any food?

But a cartoonist explained it very eloquently below...

I think that you think that means what it does not mean.

No I know what this is, I think I should have been more clear.

See I was born in 1980 and would like to be not considered GenY so I was trying to say: I would like to vote that Generation Y cover from 1981-2010 (instead of 1980-2010) so I would not be included in the often accurate depiction of the OP definitions! Sorry for the confusion!

even though I fall in this Y generation, I truly know that i am nothing like what the OP stated ( i don't take offense from the OP, I understand it is a joke)

I have a job, have my own place, pay my own bills ( have since i was 15), was never on my parents car insurance.

All of these things have made me a much stronger person, I do feel bad for those other kids that will fall flat on their face when everything is taken away from them. They will have a hard time making ends meet.

My father gave me a belt and therefore I was forced to not be part of GenY or I would get the belt in a different way! Wish they would seperate the good from the bad.

i got to learn about my generation in management class today. Now most of it doesnt happen to me(thank god), but some of it was just ridiculous. Mostly about parents.

Hahahah Wikipedia:

"Generation X, commonly abbreviated to Gen X, is the generation born after the Western post–World War II baby boom ended. While there is no universally agreed upon time frame, the term generally includes people born from the early 1960's through the early 1980's, usually no later than 1981 or 1982."

Gen X Baby!!!

I can sleep tonight now!



"The exact date range that constitutes Generation X is the subject of diverging opinions. Part of the variance comes from slightly differing definitions of what exactly Generation X is. Geography can also influence date ranges. Another problem stems from the difficulty in exactly defining a generation by birth year, as Fran Kick explains, "please understand that there are no hard and fast lines that occur between December 31st of one year and January 1st of the next. More often than not, it's a shift that occurs over three to five years, maybe more depending on who you ask." Some sources cite a start in the mid 1960s. Some cite an end date before the end of the 1970s. Others cite an end in the early 1980s; the birth years of 1981 and 1982 are cited as common end dates, with either depending on geographics, researcher, or the determination of what year the first millennial generation officially left grade school."

I've got to say that part of my generation's problems stem from the generation before us. We may be slackers as a generation, but your generation raised us...

Don't forget that we are also living in what is the most corrupt time in US history, and that also comes from the generations before us.

(For the record I am not an "occupier" or a "slacker" :D)

wiki CAN be a very useful place for light research, but you should always check its sources for accuracy and never actually cite wiki.
