“Never once at the start of my workweek …have I paused, looked to the heavens and whispered: #ThankGodIt’sMonday. Apparently, that makes me a traitor to my generation.” - NYTimes

I would add this:

While some millennials are become workaholics and work has turned into a religion and the ultimate purpose of life, others are mooching off their parents and refusing to launch.

There is a polarization here the article does not catch. It seems that the moderate middle is what has declined.

Maybe they actually do love their work and aren’t pretending at all. If they haven’t yet become cynical about work, good for them, I say! Maybe they’ve figured out that just “earning a paycheck I can spend partying” isn’t the way to go. It’s a ray of hope.

Views expressed are always my own and not my employer's, my church's, my family's, my neighbors', or my pets'. The house plants have authorized me to speak for them, however, and they always agree with me.
