As someone who has employed and managed milenials I have the attitude and animosity towards them described in this gentleman's opening remarks. I have found them difficult to manage and I admit would prefer not to hire them at all (but given this was the service industry I had little choice).

This sounds incredibly insensitive I know, but I rarely had a member of the team that did not fit the mold we have put them into. A sense of entitlement is in fact at the top of my list. In my view, loyalty and respect from an employer are earned - not a right.

I blame the parents. We have a generation of parents afraid to be a parent. They are afraid to say 'no' and are more concerned about being a friend. We are NOT friends of our children! We are parents. It is our job to teach resposnsibility, independence, and resilience.

I have endured parents attending their ADULT child's job interview (not hired). I've had parents dictate to me their ADULT son or daughter's schedule and holidays (not going to happen). I've had ADULT employees who have never mopped a floor, dusted, tidied, or cleaned a bathroom - and parents who called up threatening me for having 'forced' their ADULT] to do so. I've been threated by parents with legal action because I haad to let their ADULT go on account of laziness and poor work ethic. I've had resumes of ADULTs who have never had a job before.

Granted not all of them can be painted with this brush but my personal experience is that this sense of entitlement is pretty broad.
