To me, it boils down to the businesses of today not creating the work environments Gen X and Gen Y have come to expect. We want flexibility in terms of time and location and the proof of my assertion is in the technology we use. Wireless devices that allow us to take our work on the road, using tech gear like iPods and DVR’s to listen and watch content when we please. Most of the people who fall in to the Gen X and Gen Y category are dedicated professionals. We just don’t believe there should be such a thing as 8-5, Monday-Friday. Does it really matter where, when or how the work gets done as long as it gets done? Some jobs can accommodate that while others simply can’t. The employers of today should start taking this seriously. If anything, meet them half-way. Allow for telecommuting. Allow for flexible work schedules. I agree there’s a perfect storm coming, as you call it, to American business. If they can’t understand this new generation of people coming up I the workforce, it will become harder and harder to replace those who are departing. Enough ranting. Looking forward to your comments, Tac. Couldn’t agree with you more. To me, it boils down to the businesses of today not creating the work environments Gen X and Gen Y have come to expect.
