My generation are a bunch of worthless ****s

A strong pat on the back and a reassuring word no longer cuts it when it comes to keeping millennials happy at work.

More than three-quarters of U.K. workers age 18 to 24 say company perks are crucial to their job satisfaction, according to a survey released this week by Perkbox, a company that sells employee gifts. Only about half of baby boomers in the U.K. tied their job satisfaction to the goodies, the survey said.

Amazon gift cards, for example, are the physical representation of a caring, sharing employer, said Saurav Chopra, co-founder of Perkbox. Skyscanner, an Edinburgh-based flight comparison site, gives employees discounts at local sandwich shops and hairdressers. Airbnb provides employees with $2,000 a year good for spending on properties on the home-sharing site anywhere in the world.

“Millennials see this as something employers should do as standard, whereas older employees see it as a bonus,” Chopra said.

I'm not a good reference..I've been a self employed artist for 21 years.

I will say this, General contractors and Painting contractors have said that millennials are worthless when it comes to working hard.

I'm sure there are plenty who do work hard, so not painting with a broad brush.


no pun intended.

Meanwhile J1B visas are being handed out likely candy and corporations are keeping the money at the top of the totem pole hiring these immigrants that willing to work 60 hours a week on pay that is 60% of their fair market value.

Oh they are noticing this. The ones that are employed that is.

The longest job I've had was 9 years or so and counting that I was a route driver for at least 12 years and still would be I think if it wasn't for back issues that kept me from doing things as I was a successful route driver as far as the company goes I won a trip to Cabo San Lucas Mexico so I considered that as huge success because it wasn't easy and being top region in sales for 6 months for the contest was pretty intense challenge. I think I'd still be there if it wasn't for back issues and I've had to adapt and cope since then so I've been averaging two or three years but always trying better my situation for living.

I loved being praised by my job and that helped with motivation but also when I was criticized it motivated me to do better to me life is about improving my life and that's how I try to manage myself even though through the years I haven't done all that good job about it especially my drinking and debauchery years.

Now I want to indulge but I know better and fishing takes precedence so I'm happy as long as I get to go fishing but depression happens when I'm not going much.

I think a job giving paid fishing days would be a great investment for employers to treat their employees. JMHO.

Just hit 4 years here. At 5 years I'm fully vested. If an offer presents after year 5, I have no problems jumping ship. I like my job but people sometimes offer good money to get you moved and I'll be willing to listen.

Bob Dole was at his last one for 16 years. Hopped around to 3 jobs to ratchet up salary for 5 years before that. 3 year break for college. Same company for 6 years before that.

To be fair and clear, once I spent some time learning how to communicate better with my team it's been much better. They're all dependable and do a great job,and when it comes to tech stuff jump in and bring ideas. We have some other under 30s who are outstanding....they just need that reward.

Sorting through the people to find the good ones is the trick I think.

That is another story in itself. Some of the things you see in resumes and job interviews.....like bringing your mother to your job interview are the head scratchers with this generation.

Always have and it's how I got where I am and will be where I am going. If I ask you to do something you don't see me do often, I've probably spent hundreds of hours doing what I'm asking you to do.

Millennial are very techipnically talented and have much to offer.....but they tend to think that 3 months is really putting in their dues. They seek immediate reward, want credit and no tolerance for constructive criticism.

It's taken a lot of effort to figure out how to communicate effectively. Basically just give the young folks credit for everyting we accomplish, especially publically.
This is about where I am, but I haven't hired many melenials. Hell, I may even be part of the generation (IDK, I'm 33), but at this point, if you can't help me get the work done to ultimately get the grain in the bin, get the **** out. Now. I know it's not a good approach to take, but it's where I find myself virtually every day, and it is difficult for me to keep my tongue bit.

I've often considered machining up, hiring the harvest and doing it all myself, but haven't forked out the cash to do it.

I can see their point. You can get a paycheck anywhere. It's what unique perks a company provides that sets it apart from a competitor. The shift of company pensions to 401ks that go with wherever you work means there are fewer reasons to stay loyal long term anymore.

Before I became self employed it was always about:

1. Fair compensation for work done
2. Satisfaction of the contribution to te company
3. Work environment
